MICROVUETMTRAP5b EIA
The MICROVUE TRAP5b Assay is an immunocapture enzyme assay for the determination of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoform 5b (TRAcP 5b) in human serum and plasma.
Product Specifications
Background
TRAP5b (serum band 5 tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, TRAcP 5b; EC 3.1.3.2) is a 35-37 kDa glycoprotein. TRAP5b is typically expressed in proportion to osteoclast activity and is secreted into circulation. As a result, serum TRAP5b is considered a potentially useful marker for bone resorption. The MICROVUE TRAP5b EIA detects the enzyme activity of bound TRAP5b in experimental samples.
