We used quartz optical fibers and laser excitation in developing single-fiber fluoroprobes, to be used to measure molecular fluorescence in minute volumes of body fluids. We illustrate and discuss the analytical capabilities of these fluoroprobes. Limits of detection for the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin are about 10(-7) mol/L, by either conventional...
CARET is a chemoprevention trial of beta-carotene and vitamin A with lung cancer as the primary outcome. Participants at high risk for lung cancer are drawn from two populations: asbestos-exposed workers and heavy smokers. The intervention is a daily combination of 30 mg beta-carotene and 25,000 IU vitamin A as retinyl palmitate. Nearly 18,000 part...

Adipose tissue secretes leptin, which interacts with receptors in the hypothalamus. In rodent models of obesity, leptin increases metabolism and decreases food intake, which helps to maintain normal body composition. Accurate and precise methods to quantitate circulating leptin concentrations are needed for physiological studies. We developed an RI...
