title: Radioimmunoassay for human parathyroid hormone for differentiation between patients with hypoparathyroidism, hyperparathyroidism and normals.
abstract: A RIA system for human PTH is presented using a goat antibody (Code name 017-spring-78) against C-terminal hPTH fragments, as well as a human PTH standard from hemodiafiltration of a hyperparathyroid patient. It proved to be useful for the differentiation not only between hyperparathyroid patients and normals, but even within the normal range and hypoparathyroid states.
