Abstract

Sheep polyclonal antibodies to human lipoprotein(a) were used for the development of sandwich enzyme immunoassay. These antibodies virtually do not interact with human plasminogen, apoB-100, or fibrinogen in this assay. The method permits measurements of lipoprotein(a) in a wide range of concentrations: from 2 to 500 mg/dl. The variability of analyses within the range of 5 to 180 mg/dl is approximately 4.5% in a plate and 10.5% in different tests. Correlation analysis of the results of the enzyme immunoassay modification developed in our laboratory and of its foreign analogs showed a high similarity of the methods, the correlation coefficient being 95%.
