## Abstract An erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a nonspecific sickness index, which is not diagnostic of any particular disease, but which when elevated may indicate the presence of inflammation, infection, rheumatologic disease, or neoplasm. Technological advances continue to evolve to make

Effects of a homogeneous static magnetic field on erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) have been assessed by using the standard Westergren method. A magnetic field of 6.3 T in the vertical direction only slightly enhanced ESR in saline solution, which was consistent with an effect on cell orientatio
## Abstract Human erythrocytes suspended in isotonic lactose solution lost potassium and continued to lose potassium even when resuspended in isotonic sodium chloride. The same phenomenon was observed when the cells were suspended in an isotonic solution of the sodium salt of glutamate, a nonpenetr
Fever was induced in rats with a single i.p. injection of 30 g/kg E. coli endotoxin. The effect of the alcohol leaf extract of Azadirachta indica was investigated in this model. Pretreatment of rats with the leaf extract (125-375 mg/kg) did not significantly reduce endotoxin-induced fever. The recta
