Abstract: The present invention relates to a high affinity monoclonal antibody for human G-CSF and to an enzyme immunoassay using said antibody. Specifically, the practice of the invention permits one skilled in the art to obtain monoclonal antibodies with the characteristics necessary to permit low-level detection of G-CSF in plasma of equal to or less than 0.5 pg/ml in an immunoassay without interference in human fluids.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high affinity monoclonal antibody and to an enzyme immunoassay of human G-CSF using the antibody.The trace amount of human G-CSF in samples such as body fluids from patients with hematological disorders can be measured without interference in the body fluids. For example, the measurable human G-CSF concentration in plasma is 0.5 pg/ml in minimum.

Abstract: A flat type electromagnetic relay wherein respective members forming normally closed contacts and normally opened contacts and actuating such contacts are stacked on one another to substantially enclose electromagnet assembly of which core and coil frame are integrally formed to be flat. A balance spring urges a card operatively coupled to an armature of the assembly into non-attracted position of the armature for normal positions of the contacts with a balanced constant force with reference to attracting force to the armature and resilient force of normally opened contact spring. The assembly includes means for positioning the respective members when assembled with a single assembling direction.
