ABSTRACT:
A method of immunologically assaying intact human osteocalcin in a human assay sample is provided by using an antibody having an epitope in a region of an amino acid sequence 1 to 20 on the N-terminal side of human osteocalcin and an antibody having an epitope in a region of an amino acid sequence 36 to 49 on the C-terminal side of human osteocalcin. A reagent and a kit therefor are provided. Furthermore, a method of immunologically assaying the total amount of human intact osteocalcin in a human assay sample, and a reagent and a kit therefor are also provided. A monoclonal antibody and a polyclonal antibody are used for the assay. A process for producing these antibodies, and utilization of these antibodies is described.
