Abstract
The present invention provides a method for detection of a basic peptide by mixing a sample suspected to contain the basic peptide and a reagent containing denatured albumin and detecting turbidness due to a complex of the basic peptide and denatured albumin.
Claims8
A method for preparing a treated liquid sample which comprises ACTH, comprising:
- mixing a liquid sample comprising ACTH with a reagent solution comprising a heat-denatured albumin;
- complexing the heat-denatured albumin with ACTH in the liquid mixture;
- obtaining a treated liquid sample comprising aggregates of heat-denatured albumin complexed with ACTH wherein the aggregates are suitable for turbidimetry detection.
