Citrate - 1000 mg/dl, Heparin - 50 mg/dl Buffer: 5x25ml, Antiserum: 1x10ml C-Reactive Protein is a non-specific acute phase-reactive protein, which appears in blood during an inflammatory process. CRP is normally present in low concentration in blood of healthy person (<5 mg/I). It is elevated up to 100 times in acute inflammatory processes associated with bacterial infections, post operative conditions or tissue damage. In patient with inflammatory diseases the concentration of CRP increases and decreases more quickly than the red cells sedimentation rate (ESR). References : 1.

Increased levels are found in iron deficiency, pregnancy, oestrogen administration and lipoidal nephrosis. Decreased levels may be encountered in hereditary deficiencies, testosterone administration, infection, acute inflammation, some forms of nephrosis, tumors, haemochromatosis, acute malaria and malnutrition.
