Patent ID: 7754442

Claim:
A reagent kit for determining a characteristic of tissue obtained from a patient comprising: expression measurement reagents for measuring expression level of cyclin-dependant kinase (CDK) in the tissue, the expression measurement reagents comprising: a first reagent comprising a labeled CDK antibody; and a second reagent comprising a CDK of predetermined concentration; activity measurement reagents for measuring activity value of CDK in the tissue, the activity measurement reagents comprising: a third reagent comprising a substrate for the CDK and adenosine 5′-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP-γS); a fourth reagent comprising a fluorescent labeling material configured for binding to a reaction product of ATP-γS and the substrate by action of the CDK; wherein: a first reagent set of the first and third reagents is stored under a first storage condition relating to temperature; a second reagent set of the second and fourth reagents is stored under a second storage condition relating to temperature; and the second storage condition is different from the first storage condition.
