A new highly sensitive immunoassay for the detection of adiponectin in serum and saliva of dogs and its application in obesity and canine leishmaniosis

Adiponectin is an adipokine that exerts insulin-sensitizing and antiinflammatory properties. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a new heterologous ultrasensitive assay based on amplified luminescent technology for adiponectin determination in serum and saliva of dogs. A complete analytical validation of the assay was made in these fluids, and also this assay was applied to quantify adiponectin in serum and saliva of obese and lean...
