The present invention provides an anti-diacetylspermine specific
monoclonal antibody which satisfies a specific measuring condition in an
immunoreaction system between a solid-phased diacetylspermine and the
anti-diacetylspermine specific monoclonal antibody, wherein the
immunoreaction system comprises a sample diacetylspermine or sample
N.sup.1-acetylspermidine to inhibit the immunoreaction; and the specific
measuring condition is that the 50% inhibition activity against the
immunoreaction by the diacetylspermine in the sample is at least 1,000
times as much as the 50% inhibition activity against the immunoreaction
by the N.sup.1-acetylspermidine in the sample.
