    摘要: An anti-immunoglobulin specific antibody (or fragment thereof), characterised that the antibody or fragment thereof comprises one or more non-disulphide cross-links between at least one heavy chain or fragment thereof and at least one light chain or fragment thereof of the antibody or fragment thereof. A method purifying an anti-immunoglobulin specific antibody (or fragment thereof), characterised that the antibody or fragment thereof comprises one or more non-disulphide cross-links between at least one heavy chain or fragment thereof and at least one light chain or fragment thereof of the antibody or fragment thereof. A method of quantifying an amount of a subject analyte, or a fragment of an analyte in a sample from the subject comprising: (i) adding to the sample a predetermined amount of one or more control analytes or fragments thereof, which are distinguishable from the equivalent subject analyte or fragment; (ii) measuring the relative amount of the subject analyte or fragment and the amount of the control analyte or fragment in the sample; and (iii) comparing the relative amount of subject analyte or fragment to the relative amount of control analyte or fragment, to quantify the amount of analyte or fragment in the original subject sample.

    摘要: The invention provides a method for characterising a plasma cell associated disease in a patient comprising: (i) providing at least one sample from the patient; (ii) determining in the sample(s) two or more of; (a) the κ:λ free light chain (FLC) ratio; (b) the ratio of κ light chains bound to a class of heavy chain:λ light chain bound to the same class of heavy chain (HLCκ:HLC λ ratio); (c) the total amount of FLC in the samples and (d) the total amount of κ light chains bound to the heavy chain class plus λ light chains bound to the same heavy chain class (total HLC); (iii) comparing each ratio or amount from (a) (b), (c) and/or (d) to predetermined values and assigning a score to each amount or ratio; and (iv) using the scores to characterise the plasma cell associated disease. Apparatus configured to carry out the method of the invention are also provided. The invention also provides a kit comprising, in combination, (i) anti-κ FLC specific and anti-λ FLC specific antibodies or fragments thereof and (ii) anti-κ heavy chain class specific and anti-λ heavy chain class specific antibodies or fragments thereof, optionally mixed together.

    摘要: The application discloses a method of determining the severity of symptoms in a patient comprising (i) producing a triage score, such as an early warning score (EWS) modified early warning score (MEWS), paediatric early warning score (PEWS), NHS early warning score (NEWS), simple clinical score (SCS), rapid emergency score (REMS) or mortality in emergency department sepsis score for the patient, (ii) measuring an amount of free light chains (FLC), preferably combined free light chains (cFLC), in a sample from the patient, and (iii) using the triage score and the amount of FLC measured to assess the severity of symptoms in the patient. This also allows patients to be triaged to provide better treatment of them.
