Differentiated Biomarkers Supporting Enhanced Diagnostic Accuracy

Product Overview

This kit is an ELISA assay capable of highly sensitive measurement of the novel blood biomarker Mid‑pTau181 in the field of dementia research.
Mid‑pTau181 is a new dementia blood biomarker discovered by Professor Tokuda of Osaka Metropolitan University, reflecting tau pathology and providing an additional axis of evaluation alongside existing tau‑related markers.
 

Value of Mid‑pTau181

The greatest strength of Mid‑pTau181 lies in its potential to improve diagnostic accuracy when used in combination with pTau217.
Its significance is not limited to standalone measurement. It demonstrates value within integrated assessments that combine multiple biomarkers.
This allows researchers and developers to establish an environment that supports:

  • More precise evaluation of disease pathology
  • Multifaceted biomarker analysis
  •  Advancement of dementia diagnostic research
     

Differentiation Point

World’s First ELISA Kit

We offer the world’s first ELISA kit capable of measuring Mid‑pTau181.
This represents not merely an expansion of our product lineup, but a clearly differentiated and leading market position.
 

Scalability for Integrated Evaluation

Mid‑pTau181 generates higher added value when used together with existing tau markers such as pTau217.
Within our ATN strategy, it plays a key role not as a standalone marker, but as part of an integrated multi‑marker measurement platform.
 

Compatibility with KI‑ZA‑SHI

As one of the dedicated reagent groups, this kit serves as a foundation for standardized, efficient, and highly reproducible measurement when used in conjunction with the fully automated ELISA system KI‑ZA‑SHI.
