METHOD FOR IMMUNOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF (1->3)-ß-D-GLUCAN IN BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE, KIT FOR ANALYSIS OF (1->3)-ß-D-GLUCAN, AND ALKALI PRETREATMENT SOLUTION FOR BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE FOR USE IN METHOD FOR IMMUNOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF (1->3)-ß-D-GLUCAN

摘要

A problem to be solved is to perform an immunoassay method for BG in a biological sample simply operated and having a sensitivity equivalent to that of a Limulus reagent.;The problem can be solved by combining a pretreatment of a biological samples with an alkaline solution and a use of anti-BG monoclonal antibody specifically reacting with BG.
