Diamine oxidase ELISA (DAO ELISA)

Diamine oxidase (DAO) is a body's own enzyme that metabolizes histamine. Although DAO is found practically in the whole body, the most important site of its action is the intestine. The enzymatic activity of DAO determines the histamine degradation speed. In the case of DAO deficiency or inhibition, incorporated or endogenous histamine cannot be degraded quickly enough, and the symptoms of histamine intolerance are presented. Millions of people suffer from gastrointestinal problems, migraine, irritations of nasal mucosa and other allergy-like symptoms after consumption of certain nutrients. Too much histamine in the body can be the reason for this wide range of symptoms.
The Diamine oxidase ELISA (DAO ELISA) is for Research Use Only. The Diamine oxidase ELISA (DAO ELISA) is not for use in diagnostic procedures.
