Abstract

Immunoassay for the determination of parathyroid hormone activity in a sample, and for the diagnosis, etiology and treatment of calcium metabolism disturbances, osteopathies and hyper- or hypoparathyroidisms. The parathyroid hormone activity is measured with the aid of an antibody which binds to an epitope in the region of the receptor binding structuretoof the parathyroid hormone, and an antibody which recognizes whether the amino-terminal endtoof the parathyroid hormone is intact. The assay permits the antagonistic characteristics of some parathyroid hormone fragments to be taken into account.
