Alpha Fetoprotein extracted from Human Blood Cord.

Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a glycoprotein produced mainly by the fetal liver, yolk sac, and gastrointestinal tract during development. In adults, elevated AFP levels are significant for diagnosing liver cancer, germ cell tumors, and monitoring prenatal health for conditions like neural tube defects. Research on AFP spans cancer biology, developmental biology, immunology, pro-inflammatory, autoimmune diseases, and stem cell studies research.
