Axis-Shield - Model FHCCP100 - Clinical Chemistry Anti-CCP Kit
The measurement of anti-CCP antibodies has become the method of choice in the accurate diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis. Anti-CCP2 positivity can predict future development of RA in both asymptomatic individuals and in patients with undifferentiated arthritis. Traditionally Anti-CCP testing has been performed using ELISA assays or on closed mainframe immunoassay analysers. Now for the first time Anti-CCP testing can be performed on open chemistry systems ...

Axis-Shield - Model Active-B12 - FMABT100 - Holotranscobalamin Assay Kit
Three binding proteins are involved in the transport of vitamin B12 around the body – Intrinsic Factor (IF), transcobalamin (TC) and haptocorrin (HC). These binding proteins ensure the efficient uptake of the very small amounts of vitamin B12 available from the diet. When TC and HC bind vitamin B12 the resulting complexes are known as holotranscobalamin (HoloTC) and holohaptocorrin (HoloHC) to ...

Axis-Shield - Model HbA1c -FHHBA100 - Immunoturbidimetric Immuno Assay Kit
Glycated haemoglobin or HbA1c is formed by the reaction of glucose with normal haemoglobin. The amount of HbA1c in red blood cells therefore increases with the average blood glucose concentration. Poor control of blood glucose levels in diabetes increases the risk of serious complications such as cardiovascular disease, neuropathy and retinopathy. Measurement of HbA1c is the method of choice for monitoring control of blood glucose levels in diabetic ...

Axis-Shield - Model FMHBP100IUO - Heparin Binding Protein Assay Kit
Sepsis is the body’s systemic inflammatory response to infection and can progress to severe sepsis, septic shock and ultimately multiple organ failure and death. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of severe sepsis is vital to improve the patient’s chance of ...

Axis-Shield - Model FCCP600 - Anti-CCP ELISA Kit
The measurement of anti-CCP antibodies has become the method of choice in the accurate diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis. Assays using the second-generation CCP2 peptide are as sensitive as the rheumatoid factor (RF) test but with much higher specificity. Additionally anti-CCP2 positivity can predict future development of RA in both asymptomatic individuals and in patients with undifferentiated arthritis. It has also been shown that antibody levels at ...

Axis-Shield - Model FHCY100 - Homocysteine Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) Assay Kit
Homocysteine (Hcy) is a thiol-containing amino acid produced by the intracellular demethylation of methionine. Hcy is exported into plasma where it circulates mostly in its oxidized forms bound to plasma proteins. Smaller amounts of reduced homocysteine and disulfide homocystine (Hcy-SS-Hcy) are present. Total homocysteine represents the sum of all Hcy species found in plasma and serum (free plus ...

Axis-Shield - Model FHRWR100 - Enzymatic Homocysteine Assay Kit
As a general marker of overall health status, few tests carry greater predictive weight then Homocysteine. The amount of Homocysteine in your blood is one of the best independent indicators of how healthy you are. Axis-Shield launched the first immunoassay for Homocysteine and we are still at the forefront of promoting this vital marker with our Enzymatic assay for use on laboratory clinical chemistry platforms. Simple and easy to ...

SyphScreen - Model FRPR500 - Rapid Plasma Reagin Kit (RPR)
Our RPR (Rapid Plasma Reagin) kit is a slide flocculation test for the qualitative and semi-quantitative determination of antibodies to VDRL antigen (a presumptive diagnosis for Syphilis) in human serum or plasma. The 500-test kit can be used for rapid screening of patients, healthy individuals or blood bank donations. The assay can also be used to monitor the immunological response to ...

Syphilis - Model FTPHA200/1000 - Microsyph TPHA Rapid Assay Kit
Syphilis is a venereal disease caused by the spirochaete microorganism Treponema pallidum. As this organism cannot be cultured in vitro the diagnosis of syphilis depends on the correlation of clinical data with the specific antibody demonstrated by serological ...
