Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) ELISA

The ADMA ELISA kit is intended for the quantitative determination of asymmetric dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) in human serum, citrate and EDTA plasma. 

Elevated ADMA concentrations in the blood are found in numerous diseases associated with endothelial dysfunction. For example, elevated ADMA levels in blood of dialysis patients correlate significantly with the degree of arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular risk.

Furthermore, elevated ADMA levels are found in patients with hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, chronic renal failure and chronic heart failure, and are associated with restrictions in endothelial vasodilatation.
