The Acute-Phase Proteins Serum Amyloid A and C Reactive Protein in Transudates and Exudates
The distinction between exudates and transudates is very important in the patient management. Here we evaluate whether the acute-phase protein serum amyloid A (SAA), in comparison with C reactive protein (CRP) and total protein (TP), can be useful in this discrimination. CRP, SAA, and TP were dete...
