Diagnostic antibodies and antigens list

In vitro diagnostic (IVD) testing has become an indispensable tool in clinical practice for diagnosing and monitoring of diseases, as well as providing prognosis and predicting treatment response, In vitro tests may be done in laboratories, health care facilities or even in the home. The tests themselves can be performed on a variety of instruments ranging from small, handheld tests to complex laboratory instruments. They allow doctors to diagnose patients effectively and work to provide appropriate treatments.

IVDs are used to analyze human samples such as blood and saliva, either by measuring the concentration of specific substances, or analytes (such as sodium and cholesterol), or by detecting the presence or absence of a particular marker or set of markers, such as a genetic mutation or an immune response to infection. Clinicians regularly use IVDs to diagnose conditions, guide treatment decisions, and even mitigate or prevent future disease (for example, through screening tests that indicate a patient’s risk of developing a given condition in the future). There are over 40,000 different IVD products available that provide information to doctors and patients on a huge range of conditions. These comprise markers for inorganic chemistry (electrolytes, toxins, and heavy metals), markers for organic chemistry/biochemistry (proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates), as well as molecular biologic procedures (sequencing and polymerase chain reaction).

In recent years, the value of IVDs has gained further recognition because of their potential to save lives through earlier diagnosis of medical conditions. In the case of an infectious disease, early detection can ensure that patients receive timely care to help slow or stop the progression of disease. Further, knowledge of infection can help promote self-isolation to prevent further spread of the disease to the community. This has been particularly important in containing the spread of highly infectious agents during an active outbreak. Using IVDs to predict underlying genetic conditions in addition to diagnostic screening can also prevent unnecessary suffering by a patient as well as reduce the scale of treatment required.

As the ease-of-use and reliability of IVDs has improved, some IVDs have moved out of the laboratory setting and into the patient’s home. Consumers can now perform simple tests to monitor blood glucose levels, identify urinary tract infections, track ovulation, and confirm pregnancy. These tests not only empower individuals to take charge of their own health but can provide quick results that help guide further medical actions. Genemedi provides diagnostic antibodies and antigens for the in vitro diagnosis of diseases such as infectious disease, inflammation/autoimmune/inflammatory disease, kidney function (renal damages), liver diseases, lung injury, metabolic diseases, multiple disease, neurodegenerative diseases, pain, thyroid diseases, vitamin deficiency and so on.

Evidence has shown plasma biomarkers (p-tau181, p-tau217, p-tau231, GFAP, NfL, and Aβ42/40) were significantly changed in preclinical Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Recently, our R&D department demonstrated that our GMP-h-p-tau217-Ab01 has a large linear range and good sensitivity against the GMP-h-p-tau217-Ag01. Below is the result of GeneMedi’s GMP-h-p-tau217-Ab01 (Anti-human p-tau217 antibody) validation with GMP-h-p-tau217-Ag01 (p-tau217 antigen) in ELISA. We highly recommend the Ab&Ag to you.

Classification of IVD Disease:

Diagnostic antibodies and antigens for cancer detection - TG, CA-125, SCC Ag, PIVKA-Ⅱ, ProGRP, Calcitonin, NSE, CA-724, HE4, CA15-3, FER, CYFRA21-1, HER2, HSP90α, S100B, CEA, AFP, sFlt-1, PSA, hEGF, TFF2, TFF3, CA199, CA50, TK1

Regardless of the advances in the cancer therapy, delayed symptoms and lack of successful diagnosis of cancer at early stage increased the death rate. Tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) and their antibodies have been identified as potential markers in cancer diagnosis and determination. TAAs and their antibodies-based detection of cancer have the advantages such as low-cost, and simple access, which attracted much attention for early cancer detection. For several reasons, tumor marker itself is typically insufficient to analyze disease conditions. Because, maximum number of markers have been produced by both normal and cancer cells. Several cancers such as anal, breast, ovaries, testicles, colon, endometrial, peritoneal, fallopian tube, gallbladder, gastric, liver, lung, neuroendocrine, pancreatic, prostate, renal, cervix, stomach and thyroid cancer, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, hepatitis, hematological malignancies, hemochromatosis, hypercalcemia, osteoporosis, Parget’s diseases and so on have been identified using specific marker.

The kidneys are important to filter wastes and excess fluids from the blood and excreted in urine. Chronic kidney disease steadily loss the kidney function and fail to filter the waste in the body. The chronic kidney disease (CKD) includes advanced stage of renal parenchyma damage and the loss of functional nephrons. The loss of functional nephrons induces several molecular and cellular events, which leads to the development of renal lesions. The chronic kidney disease disperses the podocytes from basal membrane and excrete in the urine, therefore the diagnosis usually made with the serum proteins (creatinine) and blood urea (sCr). The early diagnosis of this disease is an important step to prevent the CKD.

Diagnostic antibodies and antigens for thyroid disease testing: Reverse triiodothyronine (rT3), Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)

Thyroid gland produces the hormones that keep body functioning normally. When concentration of these hormone increases or decrease, it’s called a thyroid disease. There are several types of thyroid disease, which includes hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroiditis and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. The most commonly measured thyroid hormones are thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), total thyroxine (T4), free T4, total triiodothyronine (T3), and free T3. The thyroid gland produces T4, as well as some T3. After its release from the thyroid gland, T4 is converted to T3, which is an active thyroid hormone, or to Reverse triiodothyronine (rT3), which is considered an inactive form. The rate and ratio of T4 conversion to either T3 or rT3 is depends upon the body’s metabolic requirement. Hence, the measurement of reverse triiodothyronine, thyroid-stimulating hormone and so on is useful to diagnose the thyroid disorder. GeneMedi offers diagnostic antigen and antibody to detect the thyroid disorder.

Diagnostic antibodies and antigens for inflammatory bowel disease testing: Calprotectin (S100-A8)

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of idiopathic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract characterized by the symptoms of abdominal pain and diarrhea. IBD is diagnosed by the comprehensive analysis of clinical findings, radiological imaging, invasive endoscopy and histopathological examination. Due to a lack of a gold standard, certain patients do not receive a definitive diagnosis using current diagnostic criteria. Recently, the search for a noninvasive marker that could augment or replace part of this diagnostic process has become a focus of IBD research. antibody markers, including microbial antibodies, autoantibodies and peptide antibodies, will minimize the use of endoscopic and radiologic examinations and improve the long-term prognosis of patients with IBD. Several intestinal inflammations and so on have been identified using specific marker.
