Summary

A competitive bradykinin enzymeimmunoassay (BK-EIA) for the determination of urinary kinins was developed. The BK-EIA was based on a stable BK-peroxidase conjugate and a BK-antirabbit-antiserum. Compared with a healthy control group, a significantly lower mean kinin excretion was found in patients with essential hypertension.
