ASSAYS, ANTIBODIES, AND STANDARDS FOR DETECTION OF OXIDIZED AND MDA-MODIFIED LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS

摘要

Immunoassays for malondialdehyde-modified low density lipoprotein (MDA- modified LDL) and oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL), monoclonal antibodies (and the cell lines for them) for use in the assays, and a storage-stable standard (which may be used as a calibrator and/or control) are disclosed. MDA-modified LDL and OxLDL are implicated in atherosclerosis and its etiology.
