Native Human C-reactive Protein

• Cat.No.: CRP-4303H
• Product Overview: Human CRP produced in Human plasma having a molecular mass of 114 kDa. It can be used as a marker for inflammation and also used for monitoring and prediction of future events in coronary artery disease.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Human Plasma
• Tag: Non
• Description: CRP is an acute phase protein that correlates with inflammatory disease and is synthesized by hepatocytes during the acute phase response by certain cytokines (IL-1 and TNF Alpha and Beta). CRP levels increase dramatically ( up to 1,000 fold) and serve as a useful marker of inflammation in such conditions as bacterial infection, rheumatoid arthritis, viral infections, transplantation rejection, meningitis, myocardial infarction, septicemia, osteomyelitis and others. CRP is also highly correlated to Serum Amyloid A levels.
• Form: The protein solution is in 20mM TRIS buffer pH 8.0 containing 0.28M NaCl, 0.09% NaN3 and 5mM CaCl2.
• Molecular Mass: 114 kDa
• Purity: Greater than 96.0%.
• Usage: For LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drugs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals.
• Storage: Human CRP should be stored at 2-8°C. Do not freeze!
