Abstract: A Sarcoma 180 tumor growth inhibiting glycoprotein material produced extracellularly from Candida albicans is provided. The inhibitor material is effective to arrest Sarcoma 180 tumor angiogenesis thereby causing tumor regression. The preferred inhibitor material is an extracellular glycoprotein produced from Candida albicans SA#1 (CBS 5736) cultured in a glucose containing chemical medium with a filtrate of the growth medium precipitated with ethanol. Dosage innoculations of the precipitate into the peritoneal cavities of Sarcoma 180 tumor infected mice effect substantial tumor regression.

Abstract: A method of separating and immobilizing constituent cells of heterogenuous intact organic cells and the molecular components of organic cells into bands in quartz tubes and scanning the bands with ultraviolet light to identify the cells by the degree in which they decrease the amount of transmitted light and the molecules by the wavelengths of light which they absorb. The method is useful in analyzing the cells of patients to determine a pathological condition, to predict a crisis in a patient undergoing therapy and to scan body fluids of normal individuals over a period of time to detect a pathological condition at a very early stage without the services of highly skilled technicians.
