title: The demonstration of alpha lactalbumin in human breast carcinomas.
abstract: Alpha lactalbumin, a good marker of functional differentiation, has been demonstrated in 51 of a 100 human breast carcinomas examined using the immunoperoxidase technique. There is no relationship between production of alpha lactalbumin and histological differentiation, and the absence or presence of lymph-node metastases.
