CRP(C-reactive protein) is protein found in blood plasma and is synthesized by liver .
Function of CRP is promoting phagocytosis which clears necrotic apoptotic cells and bacteria .
Normal Concentration of CRP level is 0.8 to 3.0 mg/l .
CRP is used mainly as an inflammation marker . Measuring and charting CRP values can prove useful in determining disease progress or the effectiveness of the treatment
CRP is more sensitive and accurate reflection of the acute phase response than ESR
