摘要:
We have discovered a “human adiponectin ELISA kit”, which can specifically measure adiponectin in human blood serum (or blood plasma) or in extracted fluid from lipocytes or culture supernatant fluid. After fractioning human serum by use of gel filtration column, each fraction was measured by the present kit, and as a result, adiponectin immunity activity was detected as a plurality of peaks at above 670 kD of molecular weight. From the results, it is presumed that adiponectin is present in the blood as a polymer or forms a complex with polymer proteins.
摘要:
A method for measurement of a target substance in a sample by means of fluorescence, which comprises the step of carrying out the measurement in the presence of (1) a specific fluorescent probe which specifically reacts with the target substance to generate fluorescence, and (2) a donor which, per se, has long-lived fluorescence and is capable of inducing fluorescence resonance energy transfer to the specific fluorescent probe that acts as an acceptor, provided that the donor forms no binding to the specific fluorescent probe by means of a chemical bond; and the step of converting fluorescence, wherein said fluorescence is resulted from a reaction between the acceptor and the target substance, into long-lived excitation fluorescence by the fluorescence resonance energy transfer which is induced on the acceptor.

摘要:
A method for quantitatively determining LDL cholesterol, including the steps of adding to serum a surfactant selected from among polyoxyethylenealkylene phenyl ethers and polyoxyethylenealkylene tribenzylphenyl ethers and a cholesterol-assaying enzyme reagent so as to preferentially react cholestrols in high density- and very low density-cholesterols among lipoproteins, and subsequently determining the amount of cholesterol that reacts thereafter. This method can eliminate the necessity for pretreatments such as centrifugation and electrophoresis, enables the quantitative determination to be conducted in an efficient, simple manner, and can be applied to various automatic analyzers.
摘要:
This invention relates to a method for testing S. aureus in a specimen wherein DNase produced by the S. aureus is directly detected or quantitatively determined by an immunoassay without cultivating the Staphylococcus aureus, and a test kit for testing S. aureus in a specimen by such test method. Use the present invention enables detection of S. aureus in the sample in a short time and at a high sensitivity without cultivating the S. aureus.
