Diagnostics antibodies and antigens for diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is the most known chronic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. Diabetes
mellitus is classified based on the deficiency of insulin production due to β-cell destruction (type
1) and by increased insulin resistance (type 2). The increasing rate of obesity increased the
difficulties to determine the type of diabetes mellitus. The classification of diabetes mellitus is
important for treatment. Beside the conventional method, the detection of biomarkers such as
c-peptide, copeptin, insulin, proinsulin, adiponectin and so on are used to differentiate the
diabetes mellitus type. However, the detection of these marker proteins from different samples may
benefit from ELISA, Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay,
Chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA), turbidimetric inhibition immuno assay (TINIA),
immunonephelometry and POCT.
