Infectious Bacteria Detection
Human Procalcitonin Assay
Catalogue Number：DNK-1405-1
Specifications：96 tests
Specimen：Serum, plasma
Reaction Time：Result within 20 minutes
Description
In recent years, invasive diagnostic procedures, bacterial antibiotic resistance, severe trauma, organ transplant and chemotherapy patients are becoming more common than ever. These factors have led to a rising rate in hospital infections, sepsis, septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Procalcitonin (PCT) is a 13kD glycoprotein that has an in vivo half-life of 25-30 hours. It serves as an important index for the detection of infectious diseases.
Clinical Significance
1. Responsive to systematic bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections.
2. Little or no reaction towards non-bacterial inflammation, viral infections, cancer, autoimmune diseases and localized infection.
3. PCT levels decrease rapidly with an effective antibiotic treatment.
