  • Derivatized pyridinoline reagent
    Patent number: 5756679
    Abstract: A pyridinoline composition in which pyridinoline is derivatized specifically at its aliphatic hydroxyl group by a selected chemical group is disclosed. In various embodiments, the composition may be used as a standard for HPLC or immunoassay of pyridinoline, a pyridinoline immunogen for producing anti-pyridinoline antibodies, and a solid-phase reagent for use in an immunoassay kit. Also disclosed are methods for making and using the composition.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 22, 1996
    Date of Patent: May 26, 1998
    Assignee: Metra Biosystems, Inc.
    Inventors: Yuri Daniloff, Simon P. Robins, Brian J. Evans, David A. Pratt, Robert Lungard
