Background
Amyloidosis is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by extracellular deposition of abnormal protein fibrils, which are derived from different proteins. Almost all patients with amyloidosis have some level of renal disorders. The immunoperoxidase technique has the advantage of being able to detect amyloid in formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues and is a very specific method for identifying amyloid fibril proteins. Small and minute amounts of amyloid can be detected with both Amyloid P and Amyloid A (GT20655) antibodies, and thus could allow earlier treatment before organ damage has occurred.
