Pig CRP ELISA Kit
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a substance produced by the liver in response to inflammation. It is a marker of inflammation in the body and is often used in medical settings to assess the presence and severity of inflammation. CRP levels can rise in response to various conditions, including infections, injuries, and chronic inflammatory diseases.
High levels of CRP in the blood can indicate the presence of inflammation, but it doesn't pinpoint the exact cause. It is commonly used in combination with other clinical and laboratory findings to help diagnose and monitor conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and cardiovascular diseases. Elevated CRP levels may also be associated with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and certain cancers.
