  • Patent number: 5681707
    Abstract: A method of immunologically assaying intact human osteocalcin in a human assay sample is provided by using an antibody having an epitope in a region of an amino acid sequence 1 to 20 on the N-terminal side of human osteocalcinand an antibody having an epitope in a region of an amino acid sequence 36 to 49 on the C-terminal side of human osteocalcin. Furthermore, a method of immunologically assaying the total amount of human intact osteocalcin in a human assay sample is provided. A reagent and a kit therefor are also described, as well as a monclonal antibody and a polyclonal antibody used for the assay a process for producing these antibodies; and a process for use of these antibodies.
