European journal of biochemistry, 259(1-2), 404-411 (1999-01-23)
Fatty acid ethyl esters have been detected in high concentrations in organs commonly damaged by alcohol abuse and are regarded as being important non-oxidative metabolites of ethanol. The formation of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) has been ascribed to two

Transfusion, 42(6), 711-718 (2002-07-31)
Viability in vivo of novel platelet components cannot be readily determined in human transfusions. Elaboration of valid animal models may be useful for this purpose. Viability of platelet concentrates (PCs) WBC reduced before storage was determined by flow cytometry in
