A panel of monoclonal antibodies was produced against cell surface antigens of the MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line. The monoclonal antibodies were selected by their ability to bind to live, intact MCF-7 cells in solid-phase radioimmunoassay, and to bind to human breast cancer cells in paraffin sections. One monoclonal antibody, designated UCD /AB 6.11, identified two cellular antigens and o...

The sole cell type (the amoebocyte) found in the coelomic fluid of the horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus can be stimulated to become motile by extravasation or trauma. Motility was studied using time-lapse microcinematography and direct microscopic examination of cells in tissue culture and in gill leaflets isolated from young animals. Phase-contrast and Nomarski differential-interference cont...

OBJECTIVE Frozen section is an accurate diagnostic tool with some unavoidable pitfalls in gynecologic tumors. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of frozen section, and to detect the factors causing erroneous diagnosis in ovarian tumors. MATERIAL AND METHOD Frozen section and paraffin section reports of 282 patients with ovarian neoplasms diagnosed between July 2006 and January 2013 in ...

In this paper an experimental investigation on the thermal storage capacity for a typical composite mixture of paraffinGraphiteCu PCM composite has been studied. Paraffin wax was used as the base phase change material (PCM) and the paraffin has been mixed with Cu turnings in different ratios 10, 50, 70 and 90 weight percentages and considered as a composite. The thermal charge and discharge cap...

Anatomical analysis of the plant tissues is an important technique used in research for studying process growth, development, adaptation to environmental stress as well characterizing gene localization. In Vietnam, most anatomical material was manually conducted which time-consuming and labor-intensive. this report, we present innovative method that can deliver high-quality rice root sectioning...

Activation of epidermal growth factor receptor (p-EGFR) is one of the triggers in the development of many malignant tumors, and the measurement of Argentophilic Nucleolus Organizer Regions (AgNOR) area is used as a marker of tumor proliferation. Alpha actin smooth muscle (αASM) of Original Research Article Guerra et al.; BJMMR, 13(9): 1-9, 2016; Article no.BJMMR.23933 2 peritubular cells (PT) a...
