C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein predominantly produced by the liver in response to inflammation, infection, or tissue injury. In horses, CRP serves as a sensitive biomarker for systemic inflammatory responses, rising rapidly within hours of an inflammatory stimulus and declining quickly as the condition resolves. CRP functions primarily by binding to phosphocholine on the surface of dead or dying cells and certain pathogens, promoting their clearance through complement activation and phagocytosis. Its rapid kinetics and sensitivity make it an important indicator of early inflammation and overall health status in equine species.
The Horse CRP ELISA Kit is a quantitative immunoassay designed to measure CRP concentrations in equine serum, plasma, or other biological fluids. In research, it is widely used to study immune responses, evaluate the efficacy of treatments, and investigate the pathophysiology of inflammatory and infectious diseases in horses. Clinically, the kit is valuable for diagnosing and monitoring conditions such as infections, post-surgical inflammation, and systemic inflammatory disorders. By providing accurate and reproducible CRP measurements, the assay supports both experimental investigations and routine veterinary care, enabling early detection of inflammatory events and informed decision-making for treatment and management of equine health.
