Latex Agglutination Assay Protocol

• Sample: 10g Epithelial Cell
• Duration of Test:  3-5 hours/5 samples
• Test Standard: Proteomics (see protocol): The identification, and quantification of Atypical Human Transferrin Receptors (AHTR)  extracted from BioMarkers form the basis for diagnosis of cancers (see references) in organs like:

                Cervical

             Prostate

             Breast

             Pancreatic

             Lung

             Colon/Recal

             Leukemia

           Bone

             Liver

             Skin

BioMarkers have been FDA approved for various formates and claims. Assay also meets American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) and FDA guidlines and regulations for Quality Assurance (QA), and FDA ICH QSE and EOP2 biochemical activity assay testing..
