چکیده
3. An effective method to separate the free hormone from the hormone bound to the protein. The total amount of the labelled hormone preparation and the binding protein, followed by separation of the bound from unbound hormone. By measuring the radioactivity in each fraction, one obtains a bound: unbound ratio which is referred to a standard curve to obtain the concentration of the hormone in the plasma.

متن کاملEvaluation of Radioiodine Therapy in the Refractory Hyperthyroidism
Background: Thyrotoxicosis is a clinical state with potentially multiple etiologies, clinical presentations, and treatments. Thyrotoxicosis is a clinical condition that results from inappropriate function of thyroid hormone in the body tissues. During the early 1950s, radioactive iodine was used as a definitive treatment method. During the last two decades, radioactive iodine has been recognize...
