Abstract

Abstract Protein PP13 is isolated from human placental tissues using a variety of methods, e.g., immunoadsorption. The protein has utility in production of an antiserum which has diagnostic applications. The placental specific proteins (e.g., PP13) are frequently detected in increasing amounts in women as pregnancy advances, and in patients with tumors especially of the tryphoblastic and embryonal types.
