Abstract: Methods and materials are disclosed for quantitative detection of isoenzymes of creatine kinase having a B-subunit by radioimmunoassay competitive displacement techniques with antibodies to human MB CK. The antibodies are specific for MB and BB creatine kinase and have no cross-reactivity with MM creatine kinase. Radioisotopically labelled isoenzymes with of creatine kinase having the same affinity for antibodies raised against human MB CK are also disclosed, which with the aforementioned antibodies provide a highly sensitive radioimmunoassay capable of measuring picomolar amounts of MB CK or BB CK.

Abstract: Methods and materials for quantitative detection of MB and BB isoenzymes of creatine kinase by radioimmunoassay competitive displacement techniques involving antibodies to human BB isoenzyme which are specific for the B monomer, react with BB CK and cross-react with MB CK, but do not cross-react with MM CK. An acylating agent is employed to radioactively label purified CK isoenzymes used as antigens. Incubation is preferably carried out in a Tris buffer having a pH of about 7.4, in the presence of a suitable organic reducing agent such as mercaptoethanol.

Abstract: Corrosive chemicals are contained in metallic vessels, the inside portion of which is coated with a homogeneous, porous polymer containing inorganic filler. The particle size, shape and distribution provides a controlled porosity which allows entrapped permeants from the corrosive chemical to escape, yet does not significantly affect the utility of the protective coating as a chemical corrosion barrier protecting the metallic vessel.
