Importance of the Detection Method for Thyroglobulin Antibodies for the Validity of Thyroglobulin Measurements in Sera from Patients with Graves Disease
Abstract
Background: The use of recovery tests has been proposed to disclose interferences from anti-thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAbs) in thyroglobulin (Tg) assays. We studied the value of a recovery test in Tg measurement by a new commercial IRMA. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 153 patients with untreated Graves disease. Tg and TgAbs were measured by IRMA and RIA, respectively (Dynotest Tg-plus and Dynotest anti-Tgn; Brahms Diagnostica). The...
