Normetanephrine ELISA kits are designed for the specific detection of normetanephrine in biological samples. Normetanephrine is a compound that is metabolized in humans and can be detected in CSF, urine, fecal, and serum samples. It has the chemical formula C9H13NO3 and belongs to the methoxyphenols class of molecules. Normetanephrine, belonging to the class of methoxyphenols, is a metabolite of norepinephrine formed by catechol-O-methyl transferase action. It participates in enzymatic reactions, including conversion to 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycolaldehyde, and serves as a marker for catecholamine-secreting tumors like pheochromocytoma.
