The afp blood test kit is used to determine the content of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in human serum to aid in the diagnosis of primary hepatic carcinoma.
Testing Principle of Alpha Fetoprotein (AFP) Test
The antibody of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is coated on the latex surface.
The AFP in the sample and the antibody become immune complexes by Latex agglutination reaction.
The immune complexes will produce the phenomenon of light scattering which is proportional to the intensity of scattered light and samples of AFP levels.
Using a specific protein analyzer to measure the intensity of scattered light, the concentration of AFP is determined by comparing the turbidity of samples to the standard concentration.
