DOI: 10.1002/jcla.22687
Abstract: Heterophilic antibodies are still an important source of interference in immunoassays, but reports of interference with D‐dimers are rare. Are D‐dimer level abnormalities, found in the clinic, caused by heterophilic antibodies as well, or are… read more here.

Abstract: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for >700,000 deaths worldwide, largely related to poor rates of diagnosis. Our previous work identified glycoproteins with increased levels of fucosylation in HCC. Plate-based assays to measure this change were compromised… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life12081114
Abstract: Serum levels of cardiac troponins can be increased both with myocardial damage and in the absence of myocardial damage. In the second case, this is due to the influence of false-positive factors, among which heterophilic… read more here.
