Erythropoietin (EPO) alpha, Human

Data Sheet URL
Description

The Erythropoietin (EPO) alpha, is a α- or alpha protein sometimes glycoprotein present in blood.
Properties

Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.
