Specification:96TestDescription:
Alanine transaminase or ALT is a transaminase enzyme (EC 2.6.1.2). ALT is found in serum and in various bodily tissues, but is most commonly associated with the liver; It catalyzes the transfer of an amino group from alanine to a-ketoglutarate, the products of this reversible transamination reaction being pyruvate…

Specification:96TestDescription:
Annexin V is a calcium binding protein which is widely present in various cells and tissues. Annexin V, belonging to a recently discovered family of proteins, the annexins, with anticoagulant properties has proven to be a useful tool in detecting apoptotic cells since it preferentially binds to negatively charged…

Specification:96TestDescription:
The Amphetamine ELISA Kit is a specific and sensitive in-vitro test to detect the presence of d-amphetamine in samples such as whole blood, oral fluids, serum, plasma and urine. While the assay will detect amphetamine use, interference by l-amphetamine and pseudo-ephedrine is virtually nonexistent. Amphetamine is a…

Specification:96TestDescription:
Amylin is a polypeptide hormone produced in pancreatic beta-cells that belongs to the family of calcitonin gene-related peptides. Amylin and its fragments stimulate the proliferation of osteoblasts, inhibit bone resorption, and increase bone density and the amount of bone mas.
This assay employs the quantitative…

Description:
ANCA stands for anti-neutrophilic cytoplasmic antibodies. These are a class of antibodies identified by immunofluorescence. In general, serologic testing for ANCA is recommended for patients with:
Glomerulonephritis
Pulmonary hemorrhage, especially Pulmonary-Renal syndrome
Cutaneous vasculitis with systemic features
Mononeuritis…

Specification:96TestDescription:
Angiotensin I is converted to angiotensin II through removal of two terminal residues by the enzyme Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE, or kinase), which is found predominantly in the capillaries of the lung. ACE is actually found all over the body, but has its highest density in the lung due to the high density of…

Specification:96TestDescription:
Angiotensin II increases blood pressure by stimulating the Gq protein in vascular smooth muscle cells . ACE inhibitor drugs are major drugs against hypertension.Other cleavage products of ACE, 7 or 9 amino acids long, are also known; they have differential affinity for angiotensin receptors, although their exact…

Specification:96TestDescription:
AFP is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of between 65,000 and 70,000 daltons including 4% of carbohydrate . During fetal development, AFP maintains high levels in the serum and drops to very low levels throughout the remainder of life. AFP is elevated in the malignant diseases of hepatocellular, testicular…

Specification:96TestDescription:
Epidermal growth factor (EGF)was subsequently isolated and purified from mouse submandibular glands. When injected into new-born mice this new factor caused precocious eyelid opening and incisor eruption. EGF was further purified, based on its ability to induce the proliferation of basal skin cells.Also, a potent…

Specification:96TestDescription:
The EGFr ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunoassay used to quantitate human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr) in human serum, plasma, and cell culture fluids. This assay is for research use only and is not to be used for diagnostic purposes.
The EGFr ELISA is designed to provide the investigator with a convenient…
