Mouse ASS1 (Argininosuccinate Synthetase 1) 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 Mouse ASS1. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Mouse ASS1. 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 Mouse ASS1, 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 Mouse ASS1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.Detection Range: 1.57-100 ng/mL. Sensitivity: 0.56 ng/mL. Assay Type: Sandwich. Standard: 100 ng/mL. Sample Type: sSerum, plasma, tissue homogenates and other biological fluids. Assay duration: 3.5h. Protein Function: One of the enzymes of the urea cycle, the metabolic pathway transforming neurotoxic amonia produced by protein catabolism into inocuous urea in the liver of ureotelic animals. Catalyzes the formation of arginosuccinate from aspartate, citrulline and ATP and together with ASL it is responsible for the biosynthesis of arginine in most body tissues [The Uniprot Consortium]
