Analysis of Procalcitonin (Human) by MSD Hypersensitive Multi-Factor Electrochemiluminescence Analyzer (CAT#: STEM-MB-0502-LGZ)

Introduction

PCT (procalcitonin) is a protein whose level in plasma increases in severe bacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections, as well as in sepsis and multiple organ failure. PCT will not increase in autoimmunity, allergy and viral infection. PCT reflects the active degree of systemic inflammatory response.




Principle

MSD electrochemiluminescence technology is mainly based on ultra-sensitive multi-factor electrochemiluminescence analyzer MES0 Sector600 or Quickplex SQ120. Through dot matrix technology, the detection of 10 indicators per well can be realized in the 96-hole graphite electrode plate. It can also be customized to realize the screening detection of 100 index wells in a 24-well plate.

Applications

Immunology/Inflammation

Procedure

1. Coat the capture antibody on the well plate.
2. Add samples/calibrators.
3. Add detection antibody.
4. Read the plate and analyze the data.

Materials

• Sample Type: Plasma, Serum
