Lipoprotein (a) is low-density lipoprotein (LDL) with an added apolipoprotein (a) attached to the apolipoprotein (b). It is synthesised in the liver and carries cholesterol in the blood. Lipoprotein (a)…
Component C3 is the most abundant complement protein in the serum. C3 is a 190 kDa protein, composed of two glycoprotein chains associated with disulfide bonds. C3 is cleaved by…
Component C4 is a 210-kDa disulphide-bonded heterodimeric protein within the complement cascade. It has several critical functions in immunity, tolerance, and autoimmunity with the other immune components. It is a…
Calprotectin is a protein found in human blood, saliva, cerebrospinal fluid, and urine during inflammation. When detected in the stool, calprotectin has a direct relationship (a consequence of neutrophil degranulation)…
C reactive protein (CRP) is a ring-shaped, pentameric protein found in blood plasma, whose circulating concentrations rise in response to inflammation. It is synthesised by the liver in response to…
Ferritin is an intracellular protein that stores iron and releases the same in a controlled fashion. Ferritin is found in most tissues as a cytosolic protein, but small amounts are…
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) exits in monomeric and dimeric form. Its dimeric form is more prevalent. Secretory IgA (sIgA) is mainly in the mucus secretions, including tears, saliva, sweat, colostrum, and…
IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation. accounting for nearly 75% of serum antibodies. IgG (Fc) is a homodimer comprising of the constant region of the two…
IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation accounting for nearly 75% of serum antibodies. IgG is the main type of antibody found in blood and…
Immunoglobulin M (IgM) is the first and the largest antibody produced in response to an antigen. IgM is involved in complement activation, therefore leading to opsonization of antigens and cytolysis.…
Lipoprotein (a) is low-density lipoprotein (LDL) with an added apolipoprotein (a) attached to the apolipoprotein (b). It is synthesised in the liver and carries cholesterol in the blood. Lipoprotein (a)…
Prealbumin is a protein that is mainly produced by the liver. It is a transport protein for thyroid hormones and exists in the circulation as a retinol-binding-prealbumin complex. Low prealbumin…
Serum Amyloid A (SAA) proteins are a family of apolipoproteins that are highly conserved, and is produced by activated monocytes and macrophages, and are secreted from certain extra-hepatic sites in…
Transferrin is a blood-plasma glycoprotein, which plays a crucial role in iron metabolism and is responsible for ferric-ion delivery. It is synthesised in the liver. Transferrin functions as the most…
Mouse serum provides abroad range of macromolecules, carrier proteins for lipids and trace elements, attachment and spreading factors, low molecular weight nutrients, hormones, and growth factors that promote cell growth…
Rabbit serum is used for the study of serum proteins and antibody-mediated immune responses. Rabbit serum provides a broad range of macromolecules, carrier proteins for lipids and trace elements, attachment…
Rat serum provides a broad range of macromolecules, carrier proteins for lipids and trace elements, attachment and spreading factors, low molecular weight nutrients, hormones and growth factors that promote cell…
Beta-2-Microglobulin (B2M) is significant for immune surveillance in animals with vertebrate. It is a component of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC I) in all nucleated cells and functions in antigen…
CA 15-3 is a mucin transmembrane glycoprotein expressed at the apical surface epithelium of the mammary gland, female reproductive tract, and stomach. It comprises three structural domains: a large and…
C reactive protein (CRP) is an annular, pentameric protein found in human plasma whose levels rise in response to inflammation. It is synthesised by the liver in response to factors…
