Abstract:
TRAb concentration in the blood of healthy adults and Basedow patients before and after I-131 treatment was measured by RIA (Radioimmunoassay) method. The results were as follow: RIA method for measuring TRAb was standardized. TRAb concentration in the blood of healthy adults was in the very low level (undetectable). TRAb concentrations in the Basedow patients before I-131 treatment were 426.98+/-206.21 mU/ml and by many times higher than that of healthy adults. After I-131 treatment: TRAb concentrations in the 5/12 Basedow patients could not be measured (undetectable) and in 7/12 patients were 127.67+/-59.21 mU/ml.
