Product Description

The,K -ASSAY HP assay is intended for the quantitative determination of human haptoglobin by immunoturbidimetric assay. The antiserum used in the kit was produced against purified human haptoglobin. The haptoglobin antibody interacts with the haptoglobin in the serum forming immune complexes . The immune complexes cause an increase in light scattering which correlates with the concentration of haptoglobin.
