摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for detecting hepatic diseases which are associated with fibrosis by determining the level of human prolyl hydroxylase in a serum sample which comprises:(a) contacting a serum sample of a patient suspected of having said hepatic disease associated with fibrosis with a monoclonal antibody specific to the .beta.-subunit of human prolyl hydroxylase to form an antigen antibody complex bound on a solid support;(b) contacting said antigen antibody complex bound on said solid support with an enzyme-labeled monoclonal or enzyme-labeled polyclonal antibody specific to human prolyl hydroxylase to form an antibody antigen enzyme-labeled antibody complex; and(c) measuring the amount of enzyme activity of said bound antibody antigen enzyme-labeled antibody complex to determine the level of human prolyl hydroxylase present in said serum sample.
摘要:
A method for determining human type III, IV and VI collagen peptides by way of enzyme immunoassay according to the sandwich technique using a monoclonal antibody and a polyclonal antibody each to the human type III, IV or VI collagen peptide, characterized in that the monoclonal antibody to the collagen peptide is used as an antibody to be coated onto a solid phase and/or an antibody to be labeled with an enzyme. Also disclosed is a sandwich technique using two different monoclonal antibodies. This method can be carried out with a smaller amount of samples in a simple manner to obtain a precise result and is thus useful for diagnosis of hepatic diseases.
