Abstract[Summary] The development and application of the method for the ultramicro-measurement of human growth hormone (HGH) in plasma based on the solid-phase radioimmunoassay (RIA) by using antibody-coated disposable microtiter trays was reported, By further reduction in the amount of antibody with corresponding increase in the period of incubation, greater sensitivity has been achieved. 'This method' has adequate sensitivity and precision for routine ultramicro-measurements of plasma HGH concentration, and is relatively simple to perform The lower limit of sensitivity for purified HGH was 25pg/ml (P<0.05) . The precision of the measurement of HGH in plasma has been calculated, and the quantitative sensitivity of the method derived from the results given by its routine use was 56.8pg/ml (P<0.05) . There was no statistical significance between the besal HGH level obtained from this method and that from double-antibody RIA in normal subjects. On the other hand, the mean basal plasma HGH level after an overnight fasting in 21 hypopituitary patients was 484pg/ml (+-282 ; 1 SD) by this method, and this was significantly lower (P<0.001) than 1376pg/ml (+-498 ; 1 SD) by double-antibody RIA. These data show that determination of basal plasma HGH levels by this method is of much value in the diagnosis of hypopituitarism. Plasma HGH concentrations were determined by this method during standard oral 50g glucose tolerance tests in normal subjects, and there was a distinct decline but not reaching the sub-nanogram range. Thus high concentrations of blood glucose could not suppress completely HGH secretion in normal subjects.
