Abstract
A method for measuring a concentration of a β-amyloid antibody in a body fluid sample through a reaction forming an antigen-antibody complex uses an antigen protein binding specifically to the β-amyloid antibody existing in a body fluid of an Alzheimer's disease patient. A diagnostic kit for Alzheimer's disease using the method is also provided.
Claims24
A method for measuring a concentration of a β-amyloid antibody in a body fluid sample comprising the steps of:
- contacting an antigen specific to the β-amyloid antibody with body fluid samples from a test subject and a control subject in a reactor coated with the antigen;
- detecting the resulting antigen-antibody complexes by using a secondary antibody-label conjugate and a chromogenic substrate solution;
- and
- comparing the detected amount of the test subject with the detected amount of the control subject.
A kit for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease, which comprises an antigen specific to a β-amyloid antibody and measures a concentration of the β-amyloid antibody through a reaction forming an antigen-antibody complex in a body fluid sample of a test subject.
