Description
The Substrate YRA402 is a vital component in chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) tests, specifically designed for the quantitative detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and its markers. Packaged in convenient 100 ml bottles, each capable of performing up to 500 tests, this reagent is integral for accurate clinical analyses. It works by stabilizing the APLS substrate, which, when combined with ALP, hydrolyzes to release photons. The emitted photons are proportionate to the ALP concentration, allowing for precise measurements crucial in clinical diagnostics.
Market Price
In the market, the Substrate YRA402 is competitively priced. While the exact cost can vary depending on the supplier and region, you can expect prices to range generally between $120 to $180 per bottle.
