Active Human NGAL Reference Standard

• Cat.No.: LCN2-19H

Specification

• Description: Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2), a secreted glycoprotein, is an adipokine that potentially connects obesity and its related adipose inflammation. Lipocalin-2 has also been implicated in a variety of processes including cell differentiation, tumorigenesis, and apoptosis.
• Species: Human
• Form: Liquid
• Bio-activity: The level of NGAL in the serum was quantified using ELISA.
• Usage: For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
• Quality Control Test: Generated from a human serum pool. This lot has been tested by standard laboratory procedures and found to be negative for HIV 1, HIV 2, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C.
• Storage: Stored at -20 °C, 4 °C for less than seven days, frozen for greater than seven days.
