Target Information
Procalcitonin (PCT), the precursor of the hormone calcitonin, is composed of 116 amino acids. In typical circumstances, a dedicated protease enzymatically converts it into calcitonin, katacalcin, and an N-terminal residue. PCT stands out as a valuable biomarker in swiftly detecting sepsis in both human and veterinary medicine.
