Rat DLAT (Dihydrolipoyl Transacetylase) 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 Rat DLAT. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Rat DLAT. 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 Rat DLAT, 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 Rat DLAT in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.Detection Range: 0.16-10 ng/mL. Sensitivity: 0.064 ng/mL. Assay Type: Sandwich. Standard: 10 ng/mL. Sample Type: sSerum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Assay duration: 3.5h. Protein Function: As part of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, catalyzes the transfers of an acetyl group to a lipoic acid moiety. The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2), and thereby links cytoplasmic glycolysis and the mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle [The Uniprot Consortium]
