Human N-terminal propeptide of Collagen alpha-1 (IV)chain/PIVNP ELISA Kit

A Sandwich ELISA from Assay Genie designed for the quantitative measurement of the N-terminal propeptide of Collagen alpha-1 (IV) chain (PIVNP) in human samples. The assay uses a double-antibody format and is validated for serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, and other liquid samples.

Linearity in serum, EDTA plasma, and heparin plasma is reported across 1:2, 1:4, and 1:8 dilutions, with recovery averages of 93% (serum), 96% (EDTA plasma), and 99% (heparin plasma). PIVNP is described in the product literature as a marker of bone formation and collagen synthesis, supporting research into bone metabolism. Reagents are stored at 2–8°C for up to 12 months.
