Product Specifications
Background
BAP is an enzyme produced by osteoblasts, the cells responsible for bone formation. The MICROVUE BAP immunoassay provides a quantitative measure of bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) activity in serum as an indicator of osteoblastic activity. Measurement of BAP is intended for use as an aid in the 1) management of postmenopausal osteoporosis and Paget's disease, 2) monitoring of postmenopausal women on hormonal or bisphosphonate therapy, and 3) prediction of skeletal response to hormonal therapy in postmenopausal women.
