IMTEC-oxLDL-Antibodies Ig(GM) is an enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) for the quantitative measurement of IgG and IgM class autoantibodies against oxidized LDL in human serum and plasma. The assay is intended for professional in vitro diagnostic use only as an aid in the risk assessment for atheriosclerosis and the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).
Autoantibodies against oxLDL are used as markers of atherosclerosis, vascular diseases, and myocardial infarction. The IgG and IgM isotypes have the greatest clinical significance. Elevated anti-oxLDL antibody concentrations are found in case of atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, hypertension, diabetes, renal failure/dialysis, SLE, preeclampsia, endometriosis and cigarette smoking. In contrast to other methods, the innovative and patent pending IMTEC-ELISA exposes each serum sample to both oxLDL and native LDL in one microtiter well. The uncomplicated analytical procedure permits the synchronous determination of IgG and IgM antibodies
