| Background | Alpha 1 Acid Glycoprotein (AGP) is an acute phase plasma protein synthesized by the liver. The protein is believed to regulate the interaction between blood cells and endothelial cells, and together with haptoglobin and C reactive protein, also regulates the extravasation of the cells during infection and inflammation. AGP is a major acute phase reactant, both in human and in rat. In human plasma, AGP (44 kDa) is found at levels of 0.5-1.4 mg/ml. Its concentration in blood plasma is elevated during acute inflammation, such as trauma, malignancies, myocardial infarction, rheumatoid arthritis, bacterial infections, after major surgery, in cases of chronic pain etc, and can be used for the diagnosis of inflammatory conditions. |
| Caution | Although tested and found negative for HBsAg and antibodies to HIV 1&2, Hepatitis C and Hepatitis Core antigen this product should still be handled as if potentially infectious. |
