  • Publication number: 20210356474
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a reagent kit, a measurement kit, and a measurement method for measuring serum amyloid A, which enable simple and rapid measurement of serum amyloid A by promoting dissociation of the serum amyloid A from HDL and carrying out an antigen-antibody reaction. According to the present invention, provided is a reagent kit for measuring serum amyloid A, including first particles having a label and modified with a first binding substance having a property of specifically binding to serum amyloid A, at least one nonionic surfactant having an HLB value of 17 to 20, which is defined by (inorganicity value/organicity value)×10, and a molecular weight of 1000 or less, and a buffer capable of adjusting a pH of a reaction solution to be in a range of 5.5 to 7.0 or a range of 8.5 to 9.0.
