Application Data
(This assay recognizes both recombinant and natural Human AFP. The factors listed above were prepared at 50ng/mL in dilution buffer and assayed for cross-reactivity. No cross-reactivity was observed.Preparations of Leptin at 20ng/mL in a mid-range recombinant human AFP control were assayed for interference. No significant interference was observed.)
Standard Curve (Sample)
(This standard curve is only for demonstration purposes. A standard curve should be generated for each assay.)
Background: Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is classified as a member of the albuminoid gene superfamily consisting of albumin, AFP, vitamin D (Gc) protein, and alpha-albumin. AFP is a glycoprotein of 591 amino acids and a carbohydrate moiety. AFP is one of the several embryo-specific proteins and is a dominant serum protein as early in human embryonic life as one month, when albumin and transferrin are present in relatively small amounts. It is first synthesized in the human by the yolk sac and liver(1-2 months) and subsequently predominantly in the liver. A small amount of AFP is produced by the GI tract of the human conceptus. It has been proved that AFP may reappear in the serum in elevated amounts in adult life in association with normal restorative processes and with malignant growth. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a specific marker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), teratoblastomas, and neural tube defect (NTD).

Product Notes
The Human AFP (Catalog #AAA258447) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA258447 ELISA Kit recognizes Human AFP. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "AFP/alpha-fetoprotein, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
