Human CK 18-M30 (Cytokeratin 18-M30) Microsample ELISA Kit

The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Human CK 18-M30. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Human CK 18-M30. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Human CK 18-M30, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of Human CK 18-M30 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.Detection Range: 15.63-1000 µIU/mL. Sensitivity: 7 µIU/mL. Assay Type: Sandwich. Standard: 1000 µIU/mL. Sample Type: sSerum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Assay duration: 3.5h. Protein Function: Involved in the uptake of thrombin-antithrombin complexes by hepatic cells (By similarity). When phosphorylated, plays a role in filament reorganization. Involved in the delivery of mutated CFTR to the plasma membrane. Together with KRT8, is involved in interleukin-6 (IL-6)-mediated barrier protection [The Uniprot Consortium]
