Abstract
All subjects were patients with malignant tumors on the gastroenterological system and in whose cases there were marked ascites (Table 1).
In the study, each patient was subjected to the intravenous drip infusion of CTM 1g for a period of 1 hour.
Samples of peripheral venous blood and ascites were taken 4 times, at 1 hour after completion of infusion, and at 2, 3 and 4 hours. The test samples were kept at-80°C until the CTM contents were determined (Fig. 1).
