Product Description
The Biorex Diagnostics C1 Esterase Inhibitor Assay is a ready-to-use reagent system for the quantitative determination of C1 esterase inhibitor in human serum and plasma, providing essential insight into complement system regulation and immune function. C1 esterase inhibitor is a key regulatory protein primarily produced by the liver, playing a critical role in controlling the complement system, kallikrein-kinin pathway, and coagulation cascade.
Deficiency or dysfunction of C1 esterase inhibitor is associated with hereditary angioedema (HAE), a condition characterised by recurrent episodes of swelling affecting the skin, gastrointestinal tract, and airways. Patients may present with symptoms such as unexplained abdominal pain or episodic oedema, making accurate laboratory assessment essential for diagnosis and management. Measurement of C1 esterase inhibitor levels supports the identification of hereditary and acquired deficiencies, aiding in differential diagnosis and clinical decision-making.
