The BioPorto Porcine NGAL ELISA is for the determination of pig NGAL in urine, plasma or serum, tissue extracts or culture media. Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.
Because pig NGAL has not yet been isolated and no antibodies or immunochemical detection methods have hitherto been developed to detect or measure it, there are no published data on the physiological or pathological functions of this protein in the pig. However, it is likely that some features of the biosynthesis, location and release of pig NGAL will be similar to those of its homologues in other species. The present kit has in fact been developed to extend NGAL research and the use of NGAL as a marker molecule, especially for kidney injury, to the pig. In the following, some pathophysiological features of NGAL in other mammalian species will be mentioned, because similar features may be observed in the pig.
1. What percentage of your IgE allergy testing panel consists of molecular allergens rather than allergen extracts? The ALEX2 IgE allergen panel consists of 117 extracts and 183 molecular allergens. This represents the largest panel of molecular allergens on the market, including 50 unique...
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...
