Abstract
The mid-part of the inguinal mammary gland of non-primed virgin, metestric albino rats, weighing 270+10 g, is sensitive to 0.001 IU/ml of prolactin when cultivated in enriched synthetic medium M-199 for a period of 2 days. This method may replace the standard crop-gland method for prolactin assay and other routine tests for prolactin, because of its reproducibility, high accuracy and specificity. Its quantitative aspects are being worked out.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
