COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING AND QUANTIFYING TOXIC SUBSTANCES IN DISEASE STATES

摘要

The present invention relates to compositions comprising synthetic aggregated peptides (SAPs). The present invention also relates to the use of these SAPs as standards in methods for quantifying substances in a sample. The present invention also relates to methods of detecting, diagnosing and monitoring the progression of an abnormal condition in a subject with the methods comprising determining levels of an aggregated biomarker in a subject by measuring levels of the aggregated biomarker in the subject and correlating these levels to a standard curve, where the standard curve is established using a SAP peptide as the standard.
