Alpha fetoprotein (AFP) is a member of the albuminoid superfamily. It is a 68kD plasma protein found in fetuses over four weeks old, produced by the yolk sac and the fetal liver, with the highest concentration reached during the 12th to 16th week of gestation. It binds and transports various ligands such as bilirubin, fatty acids, steroids, heavy metals and various drugs. After birth, plasma levels drop to trace amounts in healthy adults.
Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
