The potential teratogenic hazard of five compounds was evaluated using the Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay-Xenopus (FETAX) and a metabolic activation system. Embryos of the South African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, were exposed to (i) three compounds suspected to be proteratogenic in mammalian test

## Abstract In the present study, the cytotoxic effects of five prosthodontic materials on the L929 cell line were assessed by flow cytometry (FCM), reverse transcription PCR (RT‐PCR), and MTT (3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazole‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazoli‐umbromide) assay. The cells were treated with eluates
The MTT assay reported by Mosmann is a rapid and convenient colorimetric assay for cellular growth and survival in vitro. In this paper, the MTT assay was modified as a chemosensitivity test, and its potential was investigated. Using 10 human tumor xenografts in athymic nude mice, the predictability
The differing effect of pH on the reaction of fluorescamine with amino acids and peptides has been utilized to develop a method for the quantitative estimation of peptides in the presence of amino acids. This method has been applied to the measurement of dipeptidase activities in human jejunal aspir
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** CO~2~‐ evolution tests (OECD 301‐B), formerly known as modified Sturm tests, are commonly used for evaluation of the biodegradation potential of non‐volatile molecules through measurement of the carbon dioxide produced. Extension of the modified Sturm test to evaluation
