Detection of the Marburg I alloenzyme via ELISA

The Marburg I (MRI) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the factor VII-activating protease (FSAP) gene has been associated with thrombophilia, thromboembolism, atherosclerosis, and the incidence and progression of carotid stenosis. At present, MRI SNP testing is mainly performed using costly nucleic acid analysis. to assess the FSAP genotype. The authors have developed an ELISA using antibodies [...]

New: ELISA for detection of FSAP Marburg I variant

In May 2009 American Diagnostica launched its novel FSAP Marburg I variant ELISA. This ELISA allows to detect the Marburg I variant at the protein level by classical ELISA technique. This is less demanding than the current molecular biological procedures required to determine the variant allele at the genetic level. The assay requires platelet-poor citrated plasma and [...]
