Healgen - C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Semi-Quantitative Rapid Detection Kit

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a marker of acute phase response to inflammatory disorder. A high level of CRP in the blood is a sign that there may be an inflammatory process occurring in the body. CRP measurements have been used for many years in the management of a variety of clinical situations, such as bacterial infections, ischemic necrosis of tissue, and active inflammatory conditions. Recent studies suggest that CRP is a strong predictor of future coronary events in apparently healthy subjects and a prognostic value in patients with acute coronary syndromes.

Healgen - Creatine Kinase Rapid Detection Kit

The CK-MB Rapid Test Device (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a qualitative, lateral flow membrane based immunoassay for the detection of CK-MB in whole blood, serum or plasma. The membrane is pre-coated with capture reagent on the test line region of the test. During testing, the whole blood, serum or plasma specimen reacts with the particle coated with anti-CK-MB antibodies. The mixture migrates upward on the membrane chromatographically by capillary action to react with capture reagent on the membrane and generate a colored line. The presence of this colored line in the test line region indicated a positive result, while its absence indicated a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will always appear in the control line region indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
