This paper reports the comparison of recently-developed chromatographic assays (using high performance liquid chromatography) with the present British Pharmacopoeial methods for the combined formulation of ergometrine and oxytocin.
In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Oxytocin.
