Abstract: The present invention relates to NGAL immunoassays and kits, and to methods of using glycosylated mammalian NGAL and antibodies that bind to mammalian NGAL in immunoassays and kits. Among other things, the methods and kits can be employed to determine the amount of human NGAL monomer in a test sample, as well as to determine the proportion of human NGAL monomer to human NGAL dimer contained in a test sample.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies that specifically bind to human BNP and immunoassays using said antibodies in the quantification of human BNP or a fragment of human BNP in a test sample.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to glycosylated and deglycosylated human PlGF-1, methods of using the glycosylated and deglycosylated human PlGF-1, antibodies that bind to human PlGF-1, methods of using the antibodies and human PlGF-1 immunoassays and kits.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to, among other things, methods for determining whether a subject receiving treatment with a drug has obtained an efficacious blood level of the drug. Moreover, the present disclosure also relates to methods of determining whether a subject predisposed to or suffering from a disease will benefit from treatment with a drug, and the response of a subject receiving treatment (e.g., such as for cancer) by monitoring biomarkers of angiogenesis. In particular, the disclosure relates to PlGF-1 companion diagnostic methods and products.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to reagents and methods of using the reagents to detect epitopes of Trypanosoma cruzi.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to isolated antibodies that can be used in an assay to determine the concentration levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in a test sample. Additionally, the present disclosure also relates to the use of improved test sample handling methods in assays in order to preserve the original MPO levels in the test sample.

Abstract: Recombinant antibodies, including chimeric antibodies, specific for hepatitis C (HCV) antigenic proteins are provided. The recombinant antibodies specifically bind to diagnostically relevant regions of HCV proteins and are thus suitable for use, for example, as diagnostic reagents for the detection of HCV, and/or as standardization reagents or positive control reagents in assays for the detection of HCV. The recombinant antibodies can also be used in the treatment or prevention of a HCV infection.

Abstract: An improved method for performing immunoassays whereby specific binding proteins for vitamin B12, folate and other target analytes are utilized with antibodies with different specificities for the binding proteins. Antibodies bridge the specific binding protein directly or indirectly to a capturable material.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a fluorescence polarization assay for phencyclidine and phencyclidine derivatives, to the various components needed for preparing and carrying out such an assay, and to methods of making these components. Specifically, tracers, immunogens and antibodies are disclosed, as well as methods for making them, and a reagent kit containing them. The tracers and the immunogens are made from substituted phencyclidine compounds. A fluorescein moiety is included in the tracer, while a poly(amino acid) forms a part of the immunogen. The assay is conducted by measuring the degree of polarization retention of plane polarized light that has been passed through a sample containing antiserum and tracer.
