The Biosensis NGF Rapid™ enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is a sandwich ELISA that allows the quantification of mouse NGF in less than 3 hours in cell culture supernatants and brain extracts only if used as directed.
This NGF ELISA kit is designed to measure mouse NGF and thus employs a mouse NGF standard. The mouse NGF standard supplied has been purified from mouse submaxillary glands according to published procedures. The calibrator standard reflects the native state of mouse NGF protein and has been chosen to give most accurate quantification of natural NGF protein levels in mouse samples.
The purpose of this kit is the in vitro quantitative determination of NGF in samples such as serum, plasma, cell culture supernatants and brain extracts.
Due to a high degree of NGF sequence homology, the antibodies used in this kit will also detect NGF from other species including human and rat! This ELISA kit preferentially detects the mature form of NGF. Cross- reaction of full-length mouse proNGF was <0,1% when assayed at 25 ng/ml in assay buffer, and not detectable when assayed across the mature NGF calibration range.
This kit consists of a pre-coated mouse monoclonal anti-NGF capture antibody, a biotinylated anti-NGF detection antibody and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin. The addition of a substrate (3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine, TMB) yields a coloured reaction product which is directly proportional to the concentration of NGF present in samples and protein standards.
Please refer to the kit protocol for specific use instructions for each substrate application.
Lieferumfang: Each kit contains 1 or 2× 96 pre-coated strip plates, protein standards, detection reagents, wash and sample buffers and detailed instructions.
