<p>The present invention relates to a method for measuring the amount of vitamin D metabolite in a sample of plasma or serum, comprising the step of (a) adding to a serum or plasma sample a non-competitive displacement agent to effect separation of any vitamin D metabolite in the sample form protein to which it is bound, such that any vitamin D metabolite may be detected and/or measured; and (b) detecting or measuring the amount of vitamin D metabolite in the sample of (a). Such methods are useful in determining the vitamin D status of the subject, for example in the diagnosis of disease. Also provide are agents and kits for use in performing the methods of the invention.</p> |
