Le climat de ces communautés devra être un climat de production sans cesse perfectionnée, de création continue, de recherche dans tous les domaines, et non un climat de cités mercantiles. Ces nouvelles cités seront de véritables villes-franches avec charte, dans lesquelles ouvriers, employés, cadres et patrons vivront en communauté d’autant plus vivante que chacun sera associé à la production. La réussite humaine de ces villes neuves dépendra du soin apporté à la formation d’une véritable âme urbaine, cette âme dont la présence fait qu'un quelconque village est infiniment supérieur aux cités-jardins les plus soignés. 1, record 1, French, - ville%2Dfranche

Recently, the fluoroallergosorbent test has been introduced into the clinical practice in order to make the IgE determination both quick and safe. ... method described by Seltzer et al. In brief, this consists of the following procedure: 100[mu]L of serum are added to a microtiter well-coated with allergen. After a short incubation, non-specific IgE is removed by washing and specific IgE bound to an enzyme-labeled monoclonal anti-human IgE. Following a short incubation and washing step, a fluoregenic substratum is added and the fluorescence signal read by a rapid fluorometer within 30 seconds. 1, record 9, English, - fluoroallergosorbent%20test
