摘要:
The detection of a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patient and the accurate discrimination between a normal person and a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patient can be achieved by measuring alanine-glyoxylate amino transferase in a sample.

Using the protein chip technology, biological samples such as sera are subjected to proteome analysis. Thus, a protein which is a human fibrinogen α-E chain decomposition product and has a molecular weight of 5,900, a protein which is an apolipoprotein AII decomposition product and has a molecular weight of 7,800, and a protein which is an apolipoprotein AI decomposition product and has a molecular weight of 28,000, each showing an increase or a decrease with the habit of drinking, are newly found out. By detecting or quantifying these proteins, a liver disease in a subject such as one having a problem of drinking can be diagnosed at the early stage.
摘要:
Specific and accurate immunoassay of tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP 5b) in a specimen may be carried out by bonding TRACP 5b in the specimen to an antibody, subjecting the TRACP 5b bonded to the antibody to enzyme reaction with a 2-halo-4-nitrophenylphosphoric acid or a salt thereof, a substrate for TRACP 5b, and then assaying the enzymatic activity of TRACP 5b.
摘要:
Novel compounds represented by the following formula: ##STR1## wherein A represents a specific amino acid residue are excellent as substrates for determination of enzyme activity such as trypsin, etc. The compounds can be synthesized from novel arginyl-3-tert-alkyloxycarbonyl-4-nitroanilides by a novel process comprising a selective deprotection step whereby the protecting group on the .alpha.-amine group of arginine is removed in the presence of a hydrochloric acid, acetic acid and dimethylformamide mixture, but a tert-alkyl protecting group on the --COOH group of the nitroanilide ring is not removed by this step.
摘要:
The present inventors produced transgenic silkworms which comprise a promoter of a DNA encoding a protein specifically expressed in the silk gland and a DNA encoding a recombinant antibody whose expression is regulated directly or indirectly by the promoter, and which secrete the recombinant antibody into the silk gland. The recombinant antibodies produced from the silk gland of the transgenic silkworms were confirmed to be active.
摘要:
A method for determination of calcium in a sample derived from a living body, by the reaction of calcium in the sample with Chlorophosphonazo-III or a compound analogous thereto in the presence of vanadate ions, followed by determination of calcium in the sample on the basis of an optical change caused by the reaction product, is excellent in various respects as follows: it is free from the problem of absorption of carbonic acid gas caused by a high pH; it is free from the problem of use of a toxic reagent containing arsenic; it makes it possible to subject a large number of samples to determination in a short time because it can be applied to an autoanalyzer; and it permits determination in a wide range because of low sample blank values.

摘要:
Monocolonal antibodies having a higher reactivity with tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP 5b) than tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5a (TRACP 5a) and having a higher specificity to TRACP 5b can be obtained by cell fusion using as antigens TRACP 5b purified from human osteoclasts. By using the monoclonal antibody, TRACP 5b in a sample can be detected specifically with a high sensitivity.

摘要:
There is provided a method for determination of hydroxyacetophenone derivatives such as 3,5-dichloro-4-hydroxyacetophenone in the presence of protein such as albumins or globulins with high sensitivity. The hydroxyacetophenone derivative can be measured in the neutral to acidic region, whereby the method is not affected by interferrants such as bilirubin or hemoglobin. The hydroxyacetophenone derivatives are useful as the chromogen of synthetic substrates for determining acid phosphatase activity.
