CA 19-9 like epitope(s) on carcinoembryonic antigen molecules.

open access: yesRADIOISOTOPES, 1989
CA 19-9 epitope(s) on carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was studied by a method designated the hybrid immunoradiometric-assay (hybrid IRMA) using solid phase CEA antibody to capture the CEA molecule and radio-labeled NS 19-9 antibody as a detector. The radioactivities of the hybrid IRMA of respective sera with certain cancers differed from that of normal ...

Limits of serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 as the diagnosis of gallbladder cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery, 2021
Introduction Because the clinical symptoms of gallbladder (GB) cancers are lacking or vague, objective tools for diagnosing GB cancer were necessary. Although serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 were widely utilized for the diagnosis of GB cancer, few studies existed about the diagnostic performance of these ...
