摘要:
The present invention is directed to a monoclonal antibody against a soluble fibrin, which specifically recognizes a conformation-changed site newly occurred in a C-terminal region of an Aα-chain of the soluble fibrin formed through thrombin digestion of fibrinogen. The present invention is also directed to a hybridoma which produces the antibody, an immunological assay method employing the antibody, and a method for evaluating hypercoagulability in a test sample by measuring the soluble fibrin level in the sample with the assay method. Through employment of the monoclonal antibody of the present invention, soluble fibrin on which plasmin has not acted, which reflects exclusively initial hypercoagulability, can be specifically detected.

The present invention provides a convenient, efficient method for determining a substrate contained in a hemoglobin-containing sample and a reagent therefor, which can be employed for a variety of automatic analyzers while reducing interference of hemoglobin contained in the sample. A method for determining a substrate contained in a hemoglobin-containing sample through reaction of an oxidase with the substrate and optical measurement of the produced hydrogen peroxide by use of a peroxidase and an oxidizable color producing reagent, characterized in that the hemoglobin-containing sample is treated with an anionic surfactant selected from among a polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfate salt, a polyoxyethylene alkylphenyl ether sulfate salt, a polyoxyethylene alkyl ether phosphate, a polyoxyethylene alkyl sulfosuccinate, a polyoxyethylene alkyl ether carboxylate salt, a polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfonate salt, triethanolamine lauryl sulfate, an alkyl sulfosuccinate, and an alkylphenyl ether sulfonate salt.
摘要:
A method for quantitatively determining a specific component in a biological specimen, which includes reacting a biological specimen, in the presence of an electron acceptor, with an enzyme which has an ability, by the dehydrogenation reaction, to oxidize the specific component or a substance derived from the specific component, and measuring the formed reductant of the electron acceptor, wherein the method avoids the influence of hemoglobin effectively if any contained in the specimen by using a measuring reagent containing albumin, thereby making an quantitative determination of the target component accurately; and a reagent for the quantitative determination.

A compound represented by the following formula (I): wherein R1 and R2 represent amino groups that substitute at adjacent positions on the phenyl ring, provided that either of R1 and R2 represents a mono(C1-6 alkyl)-substituted amino group and the other represents an unsubstituted amino group; and R3 and R4 independently represent hydrogen atom or an acyl group, and an agent for measurement of nitrogen monoxide which comprises said compound.
摘要:
A method of estimating a risk of the expression of an adverse drug reaction caused by the administration of irinotecan; and a method of reducing the adverse drug reaction caused by the administration of irinotecan. A polymorphism on the basis of a difference in the repeating numbers of TA repetitive sequences in the promoter region of UGT1 gene and two types of polymorphisms (bases at the 211- and 686-positions) on the basis of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the exon 1 are analyzed. Based on the analytical data, the risk of the expression of an adverse drug reaction caused by the administration of irinotecan is estimated. Further, the administration doses of irinotecan is designed for individual patients depending on the risk of the expression of the adverse drug reaction, thereby reducing the adverse drug reaction cased by the administration of irinotecan.
摘要:
The present invention provides a screening method by which a prediabetic state can be more accurately determined and many test samples can be treated without physical burden on patients, and a diagnostic reagent used for it. By measuring a D-mannose concentration, preferably a D-mannose concentration and a glucose concentration, in a body fluid collected from a subject, and comparing them with their respective standard values, a patient in a prediabetic state can be detected. Further, the measurement of the mannose concentration is conducted by allowing an enzyme having an oxidizing activity on mannose by dehydrogenation to react on the mannose in a sample in the presence of an electron acceptor, and quantitatively determining the formed reductant of the electron acceptor.
