Other aims were to introduce a uniform nomenclature, to prepare new standards, and to assign values to these in substance concentrations (mol/L).
Standardization of assays for human chorionic gonadotropin
Because amino acid analysis reflects the molar content of protein, it would be advisable to start using substance concentrations (mol/L) for hK2 as has been done with the recently issued WHO standards for chorionic gonadotropin (7).
