Human Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein C (SFTPC) ELISA Kit

Assay Genie's Sandwich ELISA Kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of Human Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein C (SFTPC) in biological samples. SFTPC is a key component of pulmonary surfactant, a substance that reduces surface tension in the lungs and maintains respiratory function, and abnormalities in its levels have been associated with various lung diseases. The kit is intended for research use only, within the Signal Transduction research area.

Detection is by ELISA, with a detection range of 0.469-30ng/mL and a sensitivity of 0.12ng/mL. The kit reports an intra-assay CV of 4.9% and an inter-assay CV of 6.2%. Reactivity is human, and accepted sample types include serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates, and other biological fluids. Specificity covers both natural and recombinant human Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein C.

Pulmonary surfactant associated proteins promote alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the peripheral air spaces. By providing a reliable and efficient method for quantifying SFTPC levels, this kit supports studies on lung disorders and the pathophysiology of associated diseases.
