Application

Elastin is a structural protein which has been used in studies of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It may be used to investigate why there is a lack of repair for these proteins in patients with COPD.

Preparation Note

Prepared by non-degradative extraction from adult lung as described in Starcher, et al.
