CRP

CRP

C-reactive protein is the classic acute phase protein to inflammatory reactions. It is synthesized by the liver and consists of five identical polypeptide chains forming a five-membered ring of molar mass 120 000 daltons. CRP is the most sensitive of the acute phase reactants, and its concentration increases rapidly during inflammatory processes.

Fortress Diagnostics manufactures CRP reagents designed for Hitachi 917, Olympus AU600/400/640/2700 and CA 180/270/400 Furuno/ Daytona systems.
