Background
FGF-19 (Fibroblast Growth Factor-19) is a secreted heparin-binding protein in the endocrine subfamily of FGFs that also includes FGF-21 and FGF-23. It is produced by epithelial cells of the ileal intestine in response to bile acids and signals through a receptor complex of FGF R4 and Klotho-beta in the liver. FGF-19 suppresses bile acid synthesis and enhances hepatic protein and glycogen synthesis. Dysregulalted FGF-19 activity is associated with the development of hypercholesterolemia, gall stones, bile acid induced diarrhoea (BAD), hepatocellular cancer, colon cancer, and metabolic syndrome.

What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
