biotin in salivary glands

Aims: To detect the presence of human herpes virus 6 (HHV6) and endogenous biotin in paraffin wax embedded and frozen salivary glands. Methods: Two stage indirect and streptavidin-biotin immunoperoxidase techniques were used to visualise the antigens. Results: HHV6 could not be shown in any of the tissues. However, considerable endogenous biotin antigenicity was detected in the glandular elemen...

Tuberculosis in Cervical Glands

due to the prolonged exposure (6 days). hG.H. secretion from another somatotrophic adenoma (data not shown) was inhibited 76-8±2-4% within 24 h by bromocriptine, remained inhibited for 2 days, and subsequently increased in three of four cultures in 24 h when bromocriptine was withdrawn. This change just failed to achieve statistical significance. Further reduction in exposure-time and do...
