Abstract

See full text

A carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen free from type III procollagen carboxyterminal propeptide can be used to produce an antibody which is specific for carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen and which has no affinity for the type III procollagen carboxyterminal propeptide. This antibody can be used to assay more accurately the propeptide which is a measure of the rate of production of type I procollagen and useful in diagnosing and monitoring e.g. bone diseases.
