Provided is a method for prediabetes screening by means of methylglyoxal-modified arginine derivative assay, with which it is possible to treat many samples as simply and as safely as with blood sugar assay, and to collect a blood sample taken during a primary health screening in one procedure without imposing any time restraints, complications or risks on the subject. The method for prediabetes screening by means of methylglyoxal-modified arginine derivative assay comprises assaying the methylglyoxal-modified arginine derivative in blood using an assay system which employs an antibody that specifically recognizes methylglyoxal-modified arginine derivative.
