PRODUCT NAME: Glycogen phosphorylase isoenzyme BB (GPBB)
CATALOGUE #: 8G67

Source:
Human heart tissue.
Blood sample from the tissue donor was tested and found negative for HBsAg, HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies, and HCV.

Applications:
GPBB is a sensitive marker for the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) diagnosis within 4 hours after the onset of chest pain. It has also been shown that GPBB is increased in a considerable proportion of AMI patients within 2-3 hours from onset of chest pain. Level of GPBB is increased early in patients with unstable angina. GPBB can also be a sensitive marker for the detection of peri-operative myocardial ischaemia and infarction in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

Analysis:
Purity > 95 % (SDS-PAGE).

Immunological specificity:
Immunological specificity confirmed by reaction with monoclonal antibody specific for the human GPBB.

Presentation:
Solution in 1 mM ß-glycerophosphate, 1 mM EDTA, 15 mM ME, 0.5 M NaCl, pH 7.8, and 50 % glycerol.

Storage:
- 20 °C
