Some patients with essential hypertension manifest greater than normal urinary albumin
excretion (UAE). The significance of this association, which is the object of this review, is not …

Background Some patients with essential hypertension manifest greater than normal urinary
excretion of albumin (UAE). Authors of a few retrospective studies have suggested that there …

Enzyme immunoassays are widely used for detection of analytes within various samples.
However, enzymes as labels suffer several disadvantages such as high production cost and …

Microalbuminuria has been shown in approximately 40% of patients with essential
hypertension. Previous studies have failed to demonstrate any consistent relationship …

The demonstration that microalbuminuria is predictive of overt diabetic nephropathy has
created a demand for the routine measurement of urinary albumin in diabetic patients.'The …

diabetes. The lower hatched area indicates normal range in urinary albumin excretion; the …

Estimation of serum and urinary albumin is routinely performed in clinical biochemistry
laboratories. In the past, precipitation-based methods were popular for estimation of human …

Several studies have suggested that dietary protein quality may be an important determinant
in the natural history of renal disease. We have therefore studied the effects of a …

Objectives: To compare the analysis of urinary albumin from diabetic patients by four
conventional immunoassays including radioimmunoassay (RIA), immunonephelometry (IN) …
