Product catalog summary
Product Highlights
  • Serological marker for type A gastritis and pernicious anemia.
  • High diagnostic efficiency with excellent sensitivity and specificity.
  • Automatable for laboratory use.
Pernicious Anemia Overview

Pernicious anemia, also known as Biermer's disease, results from a vitamin B12 deficiency due to a lack of intrinsic factor. Vitamin B12 is crucial for blood cell formation and is absorbed in the small intestine with the help of intrinsic factor, a glycoprotein produced by gastric parietal cells. A deficiency in intrinsic factor leads to vitamin B12 undersupply and pernicious anemia.

Pathogenesis

Type A gastritis is an autoimmune condition where antibodies attack gastric parietal cells and intrinsic factor, reducing vitamin B12 absorption. Causes include genetic factors, stomach surgery, chronic gastric inflammation, medications, or an unbalanced diet.

Clinical Symptoms

Symptoms include fatigue, increased heart rate, paleness, indigestion, abdominal pain, neurological issues like numbness, unsteady gait, and cognitive disturbances. Pernicious anemia can progress to funicular myelosis.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis involves clinical symptoms and laboratory tests for antibodies against parietal cells, H+/K+ ATPase, and intrinsic factor.

Anti-GPC ELISA Immunoassay

The assay uses porcine H+/K+ ATPase and is calibrated with an internal reference sample. Results are quantitative, expressed in U/mL.

  • Precision: Intraassay and interassay variations are low, indicating high precision.
  • Diagnostic Performance: Sensitivity is 99%, and specificity is over 74%.
Product Information
  • Ready-to-use reagents, except for wash buffer.
  • Short incubation times at room temperature.
  • CE marked and suitable for routine laboratory use.
