Morphological and biochemical studies of Crataegus crenulata Syn. Pyracantha crenulata fruits have been carried out and an herbal formulation was prepared from its fruit juice. The small sized berries weighing 250 mg each and 4000±32 fruits in 1 kg weight contain 25 per cent fruit juice. Biochemical analysis of fruit juice quantified 0.11±0.015 percent protein, 0.08±0.001 percent calcium, 0.022...

Estrogen receptors of primary breast cancer tumors were determined by sedimentation analysis. Positive tumors from pre- and post-menopausal patients were those that contained estrogen receptor content greater than 250 and greater than 750 fmoles per g wet weight tissue, respectively. A positive correlation of patients' age with increasing incidence of estrogen receptor positive tumors was found...
