Note
Mouse alpha-1-Acid Glycoprotein is one of the most acidic proteins found in serum. It has a molecular weight of approximately 40kDa with a high (~45%) content of carbohydrate. It is a positive acute phase reactant, the levels of which increase significantly in mice in response to inflammation tissue injury or disease.

MyBioSource produces Alpha-1 Acid Glycoprotein for clinical research and bulk clinical manufacturing.
Technical support, bulk quantities and aliquoting available.
Alpha-1 Acid Glycoprotein (a1AG; AGP) is an Acute Phase protein. Reduced serum Alpha-1 Acid Glycoprotein levels are mainly associated with impaired liver function but can also occur in vitamin A deficiency and conditions in which protein is being lost from the blood. AGP increased level (in parallel to increases in haptoglobin) is suggestive of inflammation. a1AG levels rise before those of haptoglobin therefore this test can be useful in determining the chronology of inflammatory processes.

Product Notes
The A1AG orm1 (Catalog #AAA173352) is a Protein produced from Mouse Serum and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Alpha-1 Acid Glycoprotein, Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
