Serm Immuno Fixation Electrophoresis as a Diagnostic Method for Monoclonal Gammopathies in Patients with Multiple Myeloma

B cells clonal expansion (producing abnormal amounts of immunoglobulins) reflect conditions causes a group of disorders called monoclonal gammopathies. They may be appearing as a range of diseases that consist of multiple myelomas (MM). The aim of this research is to use quantify and identify monoclonal gammopathy by serum immunofixation electrophoresis (SIFE) beside the serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP) assay as a tumor marker in the diagnosis of suspected multiple myeloma cases. Serum samples were collected from 94 patients with MM, and 30 persons as control, SPEP and SIFE were used for both groups. M band determined and evaluated of M protein by the Hellabio instruments. The results of this study showed significant elevation (p
