Beta-2-Microglobulin Reagents

Beta-2-Microglobulin Reagents

The Fortress Diagnostics β2-Microglobulin assay is intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of human β2-Microglobulin in human serum.

β2-Microglobulin is a low molecular weight protein (11800D) found of the surface of all cells except erythrocytes and the trophoblastic layer of the placenta. It is a constituent of the light chain of human histocompatibility antigens HLA, A, B and C. β2M is found on T and B cells and in tumour associated transplantation antigens. β2M may control the expression of antigens on the cell surface and their biosynthesis.
