Rat Pulmonary Surfactant-associated protein D (SP-D) ELISA kit

Sample Types: serum, plasma, tissue homogenates Detection Range: 0.312 ng/mL-20 ng/mL Sensitivity: 0.078 ng/mL Assay Principle: quantitative Measurement: SandwichAssay Time: 1-5h Sample Volume: 50-100ulDetection Wavelength: 450 nmProtein function: Contributes to the lung's defense against inhaled microorganisms, organic antigens and toxins. Interacts with compounds such as bacterial lipopolysaccharides, oligosaccharides and fatty acids and modulates leukocyte action in immune response. May participate in the extracellular reorganization or turnover of pulmonary surfactant. Binds strongly maltose residues and to a lesser extent other alpha- glucosyl moieties. [The UniProt Consortium]
