The ALPCO Pancreatic Elastase (PE) Chemiluminescence ELISA is a chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of pancreatic elastase in human stool. Pancreatic elastase (PE or PE-1) refers to a family of chymotrypsin-like elastases (CELAs), digestive proteases produced by acinar cells in the pancreas. PE is highly stable in the intestinal tract and the concentration of pancreatic elastase in stool correlates well with overall pancreatic enzyme output. Both the CELA3A and CELA3A isoforms of PE can be detected in stool and are detected by the Pancreatic Elastase Chemiluminescence ELISA from ALPCO. FDA Registered. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.
Key features:
User-friendly workflow featuring ready-to-use standards and controls
The Pancreatic Elastase Chemiluminescence ELISA is compatible with ALPCO's universal stool extraction device for processing of most stool samples without manual weighing. The universal extraction buffer enables labs to test several stool-based biomarkers from a single sample extraction, maximizing productivity.
Cases of food and environmental allergies have been increasing over the last decade. While conservative estimates suggest IgE-mediated allergy affects 6-8% of children and 2-3% of adults, some estimates are as high as 30%.3, 2 Symptoms can range from mild to severe and include itching, hives,...
Food sensitivity or food intolerance involves a non-allergic response to a food or food additive. In a recent on-line survey conducted in the U.S., 24% of adults aged 18 to 79 reported a food intolerance. While a food allergy is typically mediated by IgE antibodies, adverse reactions to food...
