Thoracic outlet syndrome can result from injury, disease, or a congenital problem, such as an abnormal first rib. It is more common in women than in men, and poor posture and obesity can aggravate the condition. Psychological changes are often seen in patients with thoracic outlet syndrome.
Excess detergent can also be removed from a proteinsolution with Bio-Beads Â® SM-2 adsorbent.Alternatively, the Bio-Rad DC(detergent compatible) Protein Assaycan be used. The DCProtein Assay is a modified Lowry assay whichworks in the presence of 1% ionic or nonionic detergent. This two-step method is ready to evaluate in just 15 minutes, and each kit willassay up to 500 samples with the standard method, or 10,000 sampleswith the microplate method.3.
Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) is a condition defined by the presence of abnormal antibodies and a tendency to form blood clots or to have miscarriages. People with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome produce antibodies that interact with certain proteins in the blood. This causes the blood to clot more than normal. The most commonly measured antiphospholipid antibodies include lupus anticoagulant and antibodies to cardiolipin or beta-2 glycoprotein.
