-
Reagents intended to establish points of reference (i.e., calibrate) in immunoassay tests performed to determine substances present in or secreted by neoplastic tumor cells (i.e., tumor markers) that may be found in cells, tissues, or body fluids. These reagents may be either specific for calibration of a tumor marker or, more frequently, appropriate to calibrate a whole set of similar tumor markers.
