Specification:96TestDescription:
Rheumatoid Factors which have been found among the IgM, IgG and IgA classes of immunoglobulins, reacting only with xenogeneic Fc are not autoantibodies and are unlikely to be of pathological significance. However, RFs can bind IgG from many species, including autologous IgG, when immobilized on surfaces. Autologous…

Resistin, a novel adipose-derived protein, has been proposed to cause insulin-resistant states in obesity . Resistin is produced by white and brown adipose tissues but has also has been identified in several other tissues, including the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands, pancreas, gastrointestinal tract,…

Prolactin (PRL) is a peptide hormone primarily associated with lactation. In breastfeeding, the infant suckling the teat stimulates the production of prolactin, which fills the breast with milk (lactogenesis) in preparation for the next feed. Oxytocin, a similar hormone, is also released, which triggers milk let-…

Specification:96TestDescription:
Brain-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) is a nonglycosylated peptide that is produced predominantly by ventricular myocytes and belongs to the natriuretic peptide family. Plasma NT-proBNP is a marker for congestive heart failure, while mature BNP (aa 103 - 134) promotes vasodilation and fluid and sodium excretion.

The Pro-Insulin ELISA kit is used for the quantitative measurement of insulinomas in human serum. Proinsulin is a 9390 MW polypeptide of 86 amino acids that is synthesized in the ? cells of the pancreas and is the precursor molecule for insulin. Most proinsulin is converted to insulin and C-Peptide, which are…

Prostaglandin I2 (prostacyclin) synthase is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids.
However, this protein is considered a member of the…

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is a 33 KD single-chain serine proteinase, mainly secreted by the prostate gland . PSA serum levels are abnormally elevated in patients with prostate cancer, benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and patients with prostate inflammatory conditions. PSA exists in serum in at least 3…

Specification:96TestDescription:
PTH (Parathyroid hormone) is biosynthesized in the parathyroid gland as a pre-proparathyroid hormone, a large molecular precursor consisting 115 amino acids. In healthy individuals, regulation of parathyroid hormone secretion normally occurs via a negative feedback action of serum calcium on the parathyroid glands…
