Product Description

Several auxiliary tests have been proposed for diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), one of which is the Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype test. ApoE protein, as a fat transporter, plays a key role in regulating fat metabolism of the damaged central and peripheral nervous systems. ApoE protein was initially found to play an important role in lipoprotein metabolism and cardiovascular disease. Recently, it has been studied for its direct and indirect role in the transport of lipoprotein such as Alzheimer's disease.

This product is a reagent for gene amplification devices that uses a fluorescent probe to determine the polymorphism of the 112, 158 SNP site in the amino acid sequence of the ApoE gene rapidly and accurately with real-time PCR equipment.
