Abstract: The present invention is intended to enable detection of specific human BNP fragments solely by immunoassay, and, through a ratio measurement of the human BNP fragments, provides a convenient way of providing information useful for diagnosis and prognosis of heart disease. The invention achieves this by providing an assay that uses an antibody specific to human BNP fragment (4-32)—a fragment that has not caught much attention in the past. Provided herein is an immunoassay method for human BNP fragment (4-32) in a sample, and the method uses an antibody that reacts with human BNP fragment (4-32) but does not react with full-length human BNP (1-32), human BNP fragment (3-32), and human BNP fragment (5-32). Also provided herein is an assay in which the antibody is an antibody that reacts with human BNP fragment (4-32) at a site containing the N-terminus, and that reacts with human BNP fragment (4-10).

Abstract: A device direct-mounting shield connector configured to be installed in an opening section in a metal casing, includes a nonconductive connector housing and a metal shield shell. The connector housing has a cylindrical hood section which includes a terminal housing section. The metal shield shell is installed in the connector housing and covers a circumference of the terminal housing section. The shield shell integrally has an exposed section and a fastening section. The exposed section is configured to contact to a shield shell of the mating connector when the mating connector is fitted with the connector housing. The fastening section has a through hole at a rear end side of the connector housing. The shield shell is fastened to the casing by passing a bolt into the through hole and a bolt hole in the casing and by tightening the bolt.
