Overview
| Product Name: | Rat VCAM-1 (Vascuolar Cell Adhesion Molecule 1) ELISA Kit |
| Catalog No: | CUBEK06674 |
| Description: | This ELISA kit applies to the in vitro quantitative determination of Rat VCAM-1 concentrations in serum, plasma and other biological fluids. |
| Quantity: | 12 X 8-well Strips (96T) |
| Target Species: | Rat |
| Tested Applications: | ELISA |
| Specificity: | This kit recognizes natural and recombinant rat VCAM-1. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between rat VCAM-1 and analogues was observed. |
| Pinciple: | The Rat VCAM-1 (Vascuolar Cell Adhesion Molecule 1) ELISA Kit uses the Sandwich-ELISA method. The micro ELISA plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to rat VCAM-1. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate micro ELISA plate wells and combined with the specific antibody. A biotinylated detection antibody specific for rat VCAM-1 and Avidin-Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugate is added to each well, successively, and the plate is incubated at 37˚C. The wells are washed and the substrate solution is added. Wells containing rat VCAM-1, biotinylated detection antibody and Avidin-HRP conjugate will appear blue in color. The enzyme substrate is terminated by the addition of a sulfuric acid solution, turning the solution yellow. The optical density (OD) is measured spectrophotometrically at wavelength of 450 nm. The OD value is proportional to the concentration of the rat VCAM-1. You can calculate the concentration of rat VCAM-1 in the samples by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve. |
