Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel assay system for fecal calprotectin (FC), colloidal gold aggragation assay (CGA), had excellent performance for assessing mucosal inflammation of pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases, and can be replaced for conventional ELISA. FC measured by CGA was also useful for assessing mucosal healing and identifying subclinical inflammation of the colon.
