title: [ELISA of serum isoferritin and its clinical application].
abstract: Serum isoferritin levels were detected by ELISA in 96 normal, 11 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 28 breast cancer (BC), 31 lung cancer (LC), 26 breast fibroma, 11 pneumonia and 11 tuberculosis. The results reveal significant differences of serum isoferritin levels between the normals and the patients, and between the malignant cases and benign cases (P < 0.01). Serum isoferritin demonstrates higher sensitivity in detecting HCC, LC and BC and thus is of great value in the differential diagnosis of these cancers.
