Molecular
structure of the marker of tumour is determined by magneto-optical analysis of
blood serum. The marker is the laevorotatory enantiomer of alanine. The cancer
status of a subject is described by the number of molecules of the
laevorotatory alanine enantiomer(-)ρ and the effectiveness of
therapy ismeasured
by the number of molecules of the
dextrorotatory alanine enantiomer (+)ρ. The values of(-)ρ and(+)ρare determined separately for the patient before and
after therapy.
