Safety Data Sheet
Usage
Background
Procalcitonin is a hormone mostly produced by the C cells of the thyroid and specific endocrine cells of the lung. Under normal expression conditions, procalcitonin is immediately cleaved into 3 specific fragments, an N terminal residue, katacalcin and calcitonin. Levels of unprocessed procalcitonin rise drastically after bacterial infection or shock.
