Evaluation of a new immunoassay for cystatin C, based on a double monoclonal principle, in men with normal and impaired renal function.
BACKGROUND: Elevated cystatin C in blood reflects impaired glomerular filtration rate (GFR), but current cystatin C assays, based on polyclonal antibodies and immunoturbidimetric or nephelometric detection, have several limitations. We evaluated a new immunoassay based on monoclonal antibodies in s...
