CALP Calprotectin Test Kit
The CALP Calprotectin Test Kit is a rapid, quantitative chromatographic immunoassay designed for the specific detection and measurement of human calprotectin in fecal samples. Calprotectin, a calcium-binding protein released by neutrophils during intestinal inflammation, serves as a highly sensitive biomarker for differentiating inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis from non-inflammatory conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
This test utilizes advanced lateral flow technology to provide quantitative results within 15–30 minutes, enabling point-of-care or laboratory assessment of intestinal inflammation levels. By measuring calprotectin concentrations in feces, clinicians can non-invasively monitor disease activity, evaluate treatment efficacy, and reduce reliance on invasive endoscopic procedures for routine monitoring.
The kit includes pre-coated monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to calprotectin antigens, ensuring high analytical sensitivity (>90%) and specificity (>85%). Results correlate strongly with gold-standard ELISA methods, with a typical detection range of 15–600 μg/g feces, covering clinically relevant thresholds for disease stratification.
