  • Title: [Determination of C-reactive protein in serum using a fluorescence polarization immunoassay--comparison with the method of kinetic nephelometry (KNM)].
    Author: Liappis N, Jäkel A.
    Journal: Klin Padiatr; 1987; 199(1):45-7. PubMed ID: 3560764.
    Abstract:
    The determination of CRP in serum was performed by the fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) and the kinetic nephelometry (KNM). Both methods showed a good precision and accuracy. The investigation was carried out in 190 sera with a CRP concentration up to 49 mg/dl. The comparison of the two methods in 100 sera with a CRP concentration between 0.6 and 5 mg/dl showed a good correlation (correlation coefficient r = 0.9753). Close correlation (correlation coefficient r = 0.9947) was also found in 90 sera with a CRP concentration between 5 and 49 mg/dl. Discussion of the FPIA and KNM methods.
