Acute phase protein levels typically increase in blood as a result of inflammation, tissue injury, or disease and can often be used as surrogate biomarkers of disease progression. Importantly, acute phase biomarkers differ with regard to their response in different species. C-reactive protein (CRP) for example can increase as much as 1000-fold in humans but increases by only 50% in rats. In contrast,...

Life Diagnostics manufactures ELISA kits for cardiac troponin-I, myoglobin, fatty acid binding protein, and myosin light chain-1. Kits are available for species including mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, pig, and monkey. Our kits have been used extensively since 2003 and are widely referenced in the scientific literature.

Immunotoxicity ELISA Kits

Anti-KLH, anti-SRBC, and anti-tetanus toxoid IgM and IgG are routinely used as biomarkers of immunotoxicity. Life Diagnostics manufactures ELISA kits for these important biomarkers in mice, rats, chickens, and monkeys. In preclinical studies, animals are immunized with an immunogen such as KLH while being dosed with a drug candidate. Serum is collected at either 7 or ~ 21 days and the levels of anti-KLH IgM and...

Skeletal Muscle Biomarker...

Following skeletal muscle injury, biomarkers including troponin-I, myoglobin, and FABP are released into the blood. Measurement of the levels of these proteins allows the extent of skeletal muscle damage to be determined. We manufacture a range of skeletal muscle biomarker ELISA kits and purified skeletal muscle biomarkers. Skeletal muscle troponin-I ELISA kits specifically recognize the fast twitch isoform of...

Welcome to Life Diagnostics

Life Diagnostics Inc., develops and manufactures ELISA kits and purified biomarkers for preclinical research. We focus on cardiovascular, acute-phase, immunotoxicity and immunology biomarkers in species including mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, pig, monkey and chicken. Additionally, because of the increasing research surrounding PEGylated biologics, we have developed several anti-PEG monoclonal antibodies and an ELISA kit for detection of free PEG and PEGylated proteins.

Use Statement: All products are for research use only.
Not intended for any diagnostic or therapeutic purpose.

Skeletal Muscle ELISA Kits

ELISA kits for detection of skeletal muscle troponin-I, myoglobin, fatty acid binding protein (FABP), and myosin light chain-1 (MLC-1) in species including mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, pig, and monkey are available, as are the respective purified skeletal muscle biomarkers.

PEG Reagents

We manufacture four mouse monoclonal anti-PEG antibodies that recognize the PEG polymer backbone with differing affinities and a PEG ELISA kit can that can be used for detection of PEG chains > 5kDa.

Cardiac Biomarkers – Purified Proteins

In addition to our broad range of cardiac biomarker ELISA kits, we manufacture purified cardiac biomarkers including troponin-I, troponin-T, troponin-complex, myoglobin, and fatty acid binding protein from different species (human, mouse, rat, guinea pig, rabbit, dog, pig, cow, and monkey).
