“…The fluoacid and quinol concentrations in Kober's reagent, rescence of free oestriol, oestradiol, oestrone, and heating coil temperature, and final acid con centra-their monoglucuronides was measured relative to tions. Brown (1952) has shown that these factors this standard under differing conditions of acid affect both the colour and fluorescence produced and quinol concentration in Kober's reagent, heating by all the oestrogens and also that different oestro-coil temperature, and final acid concentration. A gens react in different ways to changes in these number of urines, including a pooled urine, with conditions.…”
