ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting cell death, which comprises determining cytochrome C in body fluid and detecting cell death based on a quantified value, as well as a method for determining cytochrome C in body fluid by a sandwich method and a reagent for measuring cytochrome C for determination cytochrome C in body fluid by a sandwich method, which comprises an antibody directed to cytochrome C as an ingredient.
