Development of an immunochromatography strip for the rapid detection of 12 fluoroquinolones in chicken muscle and liver.

A rapid and sensitive colloidal gold immunochromatography test strip based on one monoclonal antibody with broad-specificity, which can detect 12 fluoroquinolones (FQs), was developed. Antigen and goat anti-mouse IgG were respectively drawn on NC membrane as test line and control line. Gold-labeled antibody was added on a pad and put on one end of the membrane.

Elevated levels of gremlin-1 in eutopic endometrium and peripheral serum in patients with endometriosis.

Objective: To examine the expression of gremlin-1 (GREM1) on the levels of messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein in eutopic endometrium and its serum level in patients with endometriosis.

Design: Prospective, experimental study using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, immunofluorescence, and ELISA.

Setting: Gynecological oncology laboratory in a department of obstetrics and gynecology in a medical college in China.
