Abstract:
In this paper,radioimmunoassay of the concentration of thromboxane B
2(TxB
2)and 6-keto-prostaglandin F
1α(6-keto-PGF
1α)in urine was described.Samples were extracted with ethyl acetate after acidification.The recovery of TxB
2 and 6-keto-PGF
1α through the extraction procedues were 95.7±1.7%(n=9)and 92.7±1.4%(n=9),respectively.Accuracy and precision of the method were within the scope of methodology.The normal values of TxB
2 and 6-keto-prostaglandin F
1α in 76 normal individuals and individuals in different ages groups were measured.The variations in sexes and age groups were discussed briefly.
