intended use
immunohistochemical staining kit for help in the diagnosis of alport syndrome on kidney and skin biopsies
patients with alpot syndrome have mutations in the gene for the afla 5 chain of type IV collagen. This results in lack of the alfa 5（IV） chain from glomerular basement membrane （GBM） and the skin base ment membrane as well as a lack of the alfa 3（IV） chain from GBM. The analysis should be performed by trained laboratory professionals.
Kitcomponents and storage of reagents
