Obestatin (OB) BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit (Mouse)

Sample Type:, Serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, Intended Use: The kit is a competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique for the in vitro quantitative measurement of obestatin in mouse serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Sensitivity: 27.5pg/ml, Range: 61.7-5000pg/ml, Specificity: This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Obestatin (OB). No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Obestatin (OB) and analogues was observed. Precision: Intra-Assay: CV<10% , Inter-Assay: CV<12%, Test Principle: This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. An antibody specific to obestatin has been pre-coated onto a microplate. A competitive inhibition reaction is launched between biotin labeled obestatin and unlabeled obestatin (Standards or samples) with the pre-coated antibody specific to obestatin. After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. Next, avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. The amount of bound HRP conjugate is reverse proportional to the concentration of obestatin in the sample. After addition of the substrate solution, the intensity of color developed is reverse proportional to the concentration of obestatin in the sample.
