Subject: Faecal calproctin
Morning everybody,
Does anybody offer an assay for faecal calproctin?
Our gastroenterologist thinks this assay may help in a patient he is
investigating for possible inflammatory bowel disease whose inflammatory
markers, ESR & CRP, are normal.
It's not listed in Assay Finder and I've only got 3 hits in Google for
'calproctin', none of which help much.
Many thanks, Wayne Bradbury.
