Abstract
In recent years there have been numerous attempts to establish reliable and consistent noninvasive biomarkers of gut inflammation. Here we describe the development of an enzyme-linked immunoassay for the measurement of the pro-inflammatory, calcium-binding protein S100A12 in fecal samples.
