Regarding R&D applications, a kit for assaying PAP for research use only, called PancrePAP, is also available from DYNABIO.

The PANCREPAP kit is used to assay human PAP in biological samples like serum or plasma. Its principle is based on a sandwich immunoenzymatic system (ELISA). It contains all reagents for 96 PAP assays and instructions for use. Its shelf life is 6 months.

The microtitration plate contains six 16-well bars, which can be used independently if a few assays have to be made at a time. 

Measuring PAP level has shown an interest in various medical fields, described in the section called “Potential clinical applications”.
