Comprehensive Sepsis Biomarker Coverage: Luminex^® xMAP^® platform simultaneously quantitates 5 critical sepsis biomarkers (Lactotransferrin, Neutrophil Elastase-2, NGAL/Lipocalin-2, Resistin, Thrombospondin-1) targeting key pathways in sepsis pathogenesis and organ dysfunction.Complete Assay Solution: Ready-to-use 96-well format includes lyophilized standard cocktail and two internal quality controls, enabling analysis of up to 38 samples in duplicate with comprehensive quality assurance.Optimized Sample Processing: Compatible with human serum, plasma, and cell/tissue culture supernatants using 1:100 dilution for serum/plasma samples, maximizing sample conservation while maintaining analytical sensitivity.Sepsis Research Applications: Investigate biomarkers involved in sepsis progression from SIRS to severe sepsis and septic shock, supporting research into immune dysfunction, organ failure mechanisms, and experimental therapeutic interventions.Multi-Pathway Research Analysis: Simultaneously measure neutrophil activation, acute kidney injury markers, antimicrobial responses, metabolic dysfunction indicators, and vascular integrity markers for comprehensive sepsis research.

Sepsis or SIRS (systemic inflammatory response syndrome) results from infection, whether bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic. The pathogenesis of sepsis is very complex. Both an innate and acquired immune response to infection interrupts homeostasis with a shift of cytokine expression that increases immunosuppression. In addition, migration of the leukocytes in the inflamed tissues secretes a tissue factor leading to the formation of thrombin, also triggering the release of chemokines and adhesion molecules through endothelial cells. Severe sepsis occurs when hypotension or hypoperfusion to one or more organs leads to organ dysfunction, which, in turn, can cause septic shock, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and death.
