4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit (Mouse)

The 4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit is a quantitative competitive assay for the detection of 4-HNE in mouse serum, plasma, tissue homogenates and other biological fluids. Detection Range: 31.2-2000pg/ml, Sensitivity: <18.75pg/ml, Precision: Intra-assay CV: <8%, Inter-assay CV: <10%, Assay Principle: The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with 4-HNE. 4-HNE in the standard or sample competes with a fixed amount of plate-coated 4-HNE for antibody binding sites on the Antibody-Biotin reagent. Excess conjugate and unbound sample or standard are washed from the plate, after which Streptavidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. TMB substrate is then added to each well. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of a sulfuric acid solution and the resulting color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm. The concentration of 4-HNE in the samples is determined by an inverse correlation between 4-HNE in the sample and the assay signal intensity.
