PRODUCT NAME: | AccuBind Folate |
INTENDED USE: | The quantitative determination of Folate in human serum or heparinized plasma by a Microplate Enzyme Labeled Immunoassay. |
PRODUCT OVERVIEW: | Folate plays an important role in brain development and therefore is vital during growth.The most common defects resultant from folate deficiencies are neural tube defects.With a vital role in nucleic acid synthesis, folate has been found to be beneficial as supplementation during pregnancy and other times of rapid tissue growth. Folate also plays a vital role in maintaining proper balance of homocysteine, a contributing factor in occurrences of occlusive vascular diseases and stroke. |
