  • DIAGNOSTIC METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO DELIVERY AND REAGENT KIT FOR USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20120135432
    Abstract: The invention relates to a diagnostic method for detecting susceptibility to delivery, and to a test kit for this purpose. A low, but higher than baseline level concentration of Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 1 (IGFBP-1), which is due to leakage from decidual cells, is detected by an immunological assay in a vaginal secretion sample.
    Type: Application
    Filed: February 3, 2012
    Publication date: May 31, 2012
    Applicant: Oy Medix Biochemica AB
    Inventor: Eeva-Marja RUTANEN

  • Diagnostic method for detecting the rupture of fetal membranes
    Patent number: 5554504
    Abstract: A rapid diagnostic method for detecting the rupture of fetal membranes is disclosed. The presence of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) in a vaginal secretion sample, resulting from the rupture of fetal membranes, is detected with the aid of at least one specific binding substance for IGFBP-1 .
