pubmed-article:1256004 | pubmed:abstractText | C-reactive protein (CRP) was isolated from pleura exudate of patients with metastasing cancer and added to plasma of healthy blood donors. Only the addition of excessive amounts of CRP (220 mg/ml) caused a notable increase in erythrocyte sedimentation rate. An immunoelectrophoretic method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of CRP together with C 3 or other acute phase reactants is described. | lld:pubmed |
