Abstract
The biological activity of PGE3 with regard to oedema formation in mice was examined. Paw swelling was measured 30 minutes after injection of 10 μl PGE2 or PGE3 into the plantar region of the hind paw. Doses investigated ranged from 1 ng – 10 μg. Both PGE2 and PGE3 had substantial oedemogenic activity in this system.Keywords
