General description

The Human Procalcitonin ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of human Procalcitonin in cell culture supernatants and urine. Note: The detection range of this kit is 30 pg/ml - 20000 pg/ml.  Procalcitonin is low in normal serum and may be undetectable with this assay.

Immunogen

Recombinant Human Procalcitonin

Application

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Please refer to the attached General ELISA KIT Procedure (sandwich, competitive & Indirect ELISA)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Procalcitonin or calcitonin related polypeptide a is a 116-amino acid precursor of calcitonin. It is secreted by monocytes activated by endotoxins or pathogens. The protein is a biomarker for sepsis and bacterial infections. Procalcitonin has been associated with hepatocyte dysfunction.
