Cystatin C or cystatin 3 (formerly gamma trace, post-gamma-globulin or neuroendocrine basic polypeptide),[3] a protein encoded by the CST3 gene, is mainly used as a biomarker of kidney function. Recently, it has been studied for its role in predicting new-onset or deteriorating cardiovascular disease. It also seems to play a role in brain disorders involving amyloid (a specific type of protein deposition), such as Alzheimer's disease.

Canine Cystatin C (Cys-C) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate Cys-C in samples. An antibody specific for Cys-C has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyCys-C present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for Cys-C is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Cys-C bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
