  • Immunochemical determination method and determination reagent for cytochrome c
    Patent number: 7892757
    Abstract: An immunochemical method for the accurate measurement of the quantity of cytochrome c in a body fluid, in particular, blood, and a kit for the measurement. The quantity of cytochrome c can be measured accurately without being affected by any interfering substrate by reacting an antibody with cytochrome c in a buffer solution in an acidic range.
    Type: Grant

  • METHOD FOR NON-INVASIVE EXAMINATION OF NON-ALCOHOLIC STEATOHEPATITIS BY QUANTIFICATION OF CYTOCHROME-c, AND TEST KIT
    Publication number: 20090111122
    Abstract: It is found that blood cytochrome c levels quantified for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients are higher than those for healthy persons, and that the quantified blood cytochrome c values correlated with fat deposition rates in hepatocytes. It is possible to test non-alcoholic steatohepatitis by quantifying cytochrome c in serum. A test method and a test kit for the test are provided.
