ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure relates to detection of the presence or absence of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in a sample, in particular to the analysis of the CSF protein lipocalin-type prostaglandin D2 synthase (L-PGDS). The present disclosure provides assays for the analysis of L-PGDS indicating the presence or absence of CSF in a sample.
