Patent Images
1. A method of determining an amount of APAP-protein adduct in a sample, comprising:
- a. contacting an amount of the sample with a substrate comprising an anti-APAP antibody coupled to an indicator and further comprising a synthetic APAP-protein adduct; and
,b. determining the amount of APAP-protein adduct in the sample by measuring an indicator change caused by inhibition of binding of the synthetic APAP-protein adduct to the anti-APAP antibody coupled to the indicator.
