“The majority of systemic bacterial infections are caused by endogenous pathogens from human microbiota, and the opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus, commonly found in the external opening of the nostrils, is one of the most clinically important because of the prevalence of multi-drug resistant strains”..

Cortisol Saliva ELISA is for Research Use Only. Not for diagnostic procedures.
Salivary cortisol has been found to be a good index of stress with increased levels of cortisol correlating positively with increased levels of
stress. Cortisol levels rise slowly over time and take a while to return to base level, indicating that cortisol is more
associated with chronic stress levels.
Diurnal variation is a major factor for within-person variance because baseline cortisol levels have been known to
differ based on the time of day. For normally developing individuals who follow a typical day–night schedule,cortisol
production peaks during the last few hours of sleep. This peak is thought to aid in preparing the body for action and
stimulate the appetite upon waking.Diurnal variation is also affected by psychological conditions.
For several years the gold reference standard for ELISA has been the RIA method.
Now Eagle Biosciences performed a new study with the support of Università Cattolica of Rome, comparing the ELISA
results with the LC-MS/MS technique (mass spectrometry), obtaining a very good correlation between the two
methods: R= 0.94.
This study has been performed on 63 samples from healthy subjects, collected in different time.
The Cortisol Saliva assay is now considered by scientific community a reliable alternative to Urinary Cortisol assay.
Why Use EagleBio’s Cortisol Saliva ELISA?
Making saliva one of the most accessible body fluids and potentially one of the most valuable in studying normal human physiology as well as pathology.
The majority of cortisol in saliva is not-bound and enters the saliva via intracellular mechanisms. Salivary cortisol levels are unaffected by salivary flow rate or salivary enzymes.
R= 0.94

Brain inflammation is also commonplace with Alzheimer’s disease. In June 2016’s Aging and Mechanisms of Disease, members of the Salk Institute team studied nerve cells altered to produce higher levels of the amyloid beta protein in order to mimic the conditions found in Alzheimer’s. High levels of the protein are associated with cellular inflammation and higher rates of neuronal death. Previously, it was thought that the inflammation occurred from immune cells, but an uncanny discovery proved otherwise—the amyloid beta proteins instead are the cause of inflammatory effects within the brain.

EagleBio’s Intact FGF-21 was recently utilized in this Boston Study at Tufts University:
Human FGF-21 Is a Substrate of Fibroblast Activation Protein
FGF-21 is a key regulator of metabolism and potential
drug candidate for the treatment of type II diabetes and other metabolic
disorders. However, the half-life of active, circulating, human FGF-21 has
recently been shown to be limited in mice and monkeys by a proteolytic cleavage
between P171 and S172. Read More

IGF-1 BIOTINYLATED (BIOTIN IGF-1) is for Research Use Only. Not for diagnostic procedures.
Eagle Biosciences’ IGF-1 BIOTINYLATED (BIOTIN IGF-1 was recently utilized in a study conducted at Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research in Maryland. Our Biotin- R3 IGF-I is prepared by a selective biotinylation procedure and is offered in a stable and convenient lyophilized solution. Our technology permits biotinylation without loss of binding capacity to
IGFBP´s or IGF antibodies. Potential Applications: Western-ligand blotting,Western-ligand blots with biotinylated IGF-I and analogs, and ELISAs.

It has been well documented that insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-
1) plays multiple roles during cancer development. Therefore, targeted
manipulation of IGF-1 signal pathway is an attractive strategy for cancer
treatment. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), a nonIgG
protein, interacts directly with IGF-1 and VPS24. Read More

Resistance to endocrine therapy is a major impediment to successful treatment of breast cancer. Preclinical and clinical evidence links resistance to antiestrogen drugs in breast cancer cells with the overexpression and/or activation of various pro-oncogenic tyrosine kinases. Disruption of circadian rhythms by night shift work or disturbed sleep-wake cycles may lead to an increased risk of breast cancer and other diseases. Moreover, light exposure at night (LEN) suppresses the nocturnal production of melatonin that inhibits breast cancer growth. Read More
