Background: We investigated how sensitive serum free light chain (FLC) analysis was for the detection of Bence-Jones protein (BJP) and whether a serum κ/ λ ratio could replace urine electrophoresis as part of the investigation algorithm for monoclo

Haptoglobin is an acute-phase protein with three major phenotypes: Hp 1-1, Hp 2-1 and Hp 2-2. Studies have shown that functional differences between these phenotypes have important consequences in a number of pathological disorders (e.g. cardiovascul

The presence of the age pigment lipofuscin is associated with numerous age-related diseases. In the retina lipofuscin is located within the pigment epithelium where it is exposed to high oxygen and visible light, a prime environment for the generatio

Background Calprotectin is an acute-phase protein used extensively in the assessment of gastrointestinal inflammation. It can readily be measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) and recently by point-of-care testing (POCT). We evaluated the Quan

We describe a patient being investigated for anaemia where the lipaemia index on a Beckman Coulter DxC800 analyser was markedly elevated and out of keeping with the visual appearance of the serum. Subsequent investigation revealed a monoclonal IgM ka

Background: Gastroenterologists are often hampered by the lack of a reliable, non-invasive index of bowel inflammation when establishing a differential diagnosis for patients presenting with chronic diarrhoea. Investigations aim to distinguish betwee

Calprotectin is an acute phase reactant. It is the dominant cytosolic protein in neutrophils and is also present to a lesser extent in monocytes and macrophages. Plasma concentrations increase fiveto forty-fold following infection or inflammation, bu
