Abstract: The subject invention relates to antibodies to troponin I as well as methods of use thereof. In particular, such antibodies may be used to detect Troponin I in a patient and may also be used in the diagnosis of, for example, a myocardial infarction or acute coronary syndrome.

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: 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 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: The present invention provides monoclonal antibodies specific for kringle 5 of apo(a) and hybridomas secreting such antibodies. The invention also relates to assay methods for directly measuring concentrations of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] in a plasma sample. In one embodiment, the method involves the specific capture of Lp(a) from a plasma sample with a monoclonal antibody developed against kringle 5 of apo(a), which is non-cross-reactive with plasminogen and kringle 4 of apo(a). The quantity of the Lp(a) present in the sample is then measured by detecting the amount of Lp(a)-anti-kringle 5 complex that has formed in the reaction. Alternatively, the Lp(a) may be captured non-specifically and then detected with the monoclonal antibody specific for kringle 5 of apo(a). The invention also provides competitive assays using the above-mentioned kringle 5 specific monoclonal antibodies.
