The growth of membrane technology

TL;DR: Any comprehensive review of the membrane technology field written today would have to contain even more references than this one does; it is partly an overview, giving my opinions of what, among all the work done in this field over the past two centuries or so, is most relevant.

Hormonal control of ovoimplantation.

TL;DR: Literature on the hormonal control of ovoimplantation is reviewed and the recognition of ovarian hormones by endometrial cells and cell transcriptional events, and the mechanisms of the repression and activation of the blastocyst are reviewed.

Controlled release: mechanisms and release.

TL;DR: In this paper, a control-release system of drug administration is discussed with an explanation of how the controlled release of agents according to zero-order of 1st-order kinetics arises from membrane-moderated devices and the application of diffusion laws.

Low Doses of Progestogen as an Approach to Fertility Control

TL;DR: Preliminary studies of ovarian biopsy specimens suggest that ovulation occurs as in cyclic treatment, and the endometrium showed less evidence of normal secretory activity than that seen with cyclic administration of the same drug.
