Sample-to-Answer Assays and Automation for Gastrointestinal Testing
Gastroenterology
Diseases and disorders of the gastrointestinal tract often have a significant impact on quality of life. Overlapping symptoms make it difficult to differentiate between cancers, inflammatory diseases and functional disorders. The growing range of molecular and immunodiagnostic tests detecting GI pathogens, protein biomarkers, and antibody-mediated immune response is accelerating diagnosis and treatment.
ALPCO offers targeted GI solutions suitable for all types of labs. Our offerings range from plate-based to clinical chemistry analyzer-based and automated flash chemiluminescence solutions, all designed to accommodate your lab’s expanding testing needs and capabilities.
The Anti-Gliadin sIgA Chemiluminescence ELISA is a chemiluminescent immunoassay for the qualitative measurement of anti-gliadin secretory IgA antibodies in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The EDN ELISA is intended for the quantitative determination of eosinophil derived neurotoxin (EPX) in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Calprotectin Immunoturbidimetric Assay is an in vitro diagnostic particle-enhanced immunoassay intended for use by trained laboratory personnel for the quantitative measurement of fecal calprotectin, a neutrophilic protein that is a marker of intestinal mucosal inflammation, in human stool.
Calprotectin ELISA is for the quantitative determination of calprotectin in human stool. Health Canada Licensed , Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.
The Alpha-1 Antitrypsin ELISA is intended for the quantitative determination of A1A in human stool samples. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The iFOB Chemiluminescence ELISA is a fecal immunochemical test (FIT) for the quantitative determination of hemoglobin in human stool. The antibodies in this assay are selective for human hemoglobin A. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The NGAL ELISA (Lipocalin) is for the determination of NGAL (neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin) in human serum, plasma, tissue extracts or culture media. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
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 CELA3B 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.

The Zonulin Stool ELISA is intended for the quantitative determination of zonulin family peptides in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Adenovirus ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative identification of adenoviruses in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Astrovirus ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative identification of astrovirus in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Campylobacter ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative identification of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli antigens in human stool samples and in cultures. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) GDH ELISA is for the qualitative detection of C. difficile-specific glutamate dehydrogenase in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) Toxin A/B ELISA is for the qualitative determination of C. difficile toxins A and B in human stool and from cultures of toxin-producing C. difficile strains that were previously cultured from stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Cryptosporidium ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative determination of of Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis in human stool samples. The Cryptosporidium ELISA for simultaneous determination of both pathogens in stool samples is an important alternative to the diagnosis by microscopic examination. Its sensitivity equals that of a microscopic examination, requires no personnel specifically trained in parasitology, is simple and can be conducted quickly, and it is not dependent on finding in-tact organisms (cysts or trophozoites) in the stool sample. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Entamoeba ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative determination of Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Giardia ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative determination of giardia lamblia in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Helicobacter pylori Stool Antigen ELISA is intended for the qualitative determination of H. pylori antigen in human stool samples. For research use only. Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.
The Rotavirus ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative identification of rotavirus in human stool samples. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
The Verotoxin ELISA is an enzyme immunoassay for the qualitative detection of verotoxins (syn. shiga toxins) from a stool enrichment in mTSB broth (sold separately, see Enrichment Broth catalog# 86-VTXBR-100). For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
