Prostate specific antigen (PSA) calibrator Kit |
Kallikrein 3, commonly known as prostate specific antigen (PSA), is a serine protease of the human tissue Kallikrein gene family. PSA is secreted into the seminal plasma in high concentrations. A small portion of PSA ˇ°leaksˇ± into the systemic circulation, which is increased from prostate cancer tissue than normal prostate tissue. PSA is a well-established tumor marker that aids the diagnosis, staging, and follows up of prostate cancer.

PCT calibrator Kit |
Procalcitonin (PCT) is a peptide precursor of the hormone calcitonin, the latter being involved with calcium homeostasis. It is composed of 116 amino acids and is produced by parafollicular cells of the thyroid and by the neuroendocrine cells of the lung and the intestine. The level of procalcitonin rises in a response to a proinflammatory stimulus, especially of bacterial origin.
