Biomerica Insulin Autoantibody (Isletest – IAA) Elisa Kit

This simple 2 hour 45 minute ELISA test detects islet cell autoantigen (IAA) levels in human serum.  It is particularly useful in early diagnosis of Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) or Type 1 diabetes in predisposed individuals several years before its clinical onset.

IDDM is a worldwide health problem affecting 1-2% of the population and exacting a high cost in terms of morbidity and mortality, occurring most often in patients under 40 years of age.
