Aalto Scientific has been extracting and purifying enzymes and proteins from human sources (plasma, serum, urine and tissue) since 1979. We were the first commercial source of human Creatine Kinase isoenzymes (MM, MB and BB), which aided in the industry’s development of immunoassays for CK-MB. Today, Aalto offers a complete line of clinically significant human proteins and hormones in a variety of purity levels suitable for either control sera manufacturing or antibody development.
Alanine Transaminase (ALT) is a member of the aminotransferase family and catalyzes the reversible transfer of the amino group from glutamate to pyruvate while replacing the amino group of glutamate with a carbonyl group.
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a ubiquitous enzyme found in almost every tissue in the body and has a variety of physiological roles as well as functional applications.
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) is an inhibitor of the serine protease trypsin but can inhibit many other proteases as well, and is thus a general serine protease inhibitor or serpin.
Alpha-amylase is an oligosaccharide endoglycosidase, an enzyme that cleaves an internal glycosidic bond within a poly or oligosaccharide. In the case of alpha-amylase, 1,4 linkage between two glucose moieties, cleaving the C-O bond between the C1 carbon and the oxygen, is random.
Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) is a dimeric glycoprotein and is classified as a transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-Beta) family hormone.
Aspartate Transaminase (AST) is a member of the aminotransferase family and catalyzes the reversible transfer of the amino group from glutamate to oxaloacetate while replacing the amino group of glutamate with a carbonyl group.
Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST/GOT/SGOT) exists in human tissue as two genetically and immunologically distinct isoenzymes, one associated with the cytoplasm (c-AST) and the other with the mitochondria (m-AST).
C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein, produced only in the liver.
Cancer Antigen 19-9 is a tumor marker that is commonly used in the management of pancreatic and gastrointestinal carcinoma.
Cholinesterase is an enzyme that is relatively non-specific and catalyzes the hydrolysis of many different choline esters.
