Description
Short Description: This product is a Sandwich ELISA with a detection method of Colorimetric 450 nm. The Human IL-18 BPa ELISA Kit allows for the detection and quantification of endogenous levels of natural and/or recombinant Human IL-18 BPa proteins within the range of 94-6000 pg/ml. The Human IL-18 BPa ELISA is capable of recognizing both recombinant and naturally produced Human IL-18 BPa proteins. The antigens listed below were tested at 50 ng/ml and did not exhibit significant cross reactivity or interference.
• Human IL-18 BPc, IL-18BPd

| Description of Target | The protein encoded by this gene functions as an inhibitor of the proinflammatory cytokine, IL18. It binds IL18, prevents the binding of IL18 to its receptor, and thus inhibits IL18-induced IFN-gamma production, resulting in reduced T-helper type 1 immune | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kit Principle | The Aviva Human IL-18 BPa ELISA Kit contains the components necessary for quantitative determination of natural or recombinant hIL-18 BPa concentrations within any experimental sample including cell lysates, serum and plasma. This particular immunoassay utilizes the quantitative technique of a "Sandwich" Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) where the target protein (antigen) is bound in a "sandwich" format by the primary capture antibodies coated to each well-bottom and the secondary detection antibodies added subsequently by the investigator.The capture antibodies coated to the bottom of each well are specific for a particular epitope on theHuman IL-18 BPa cytokine while the user-added detection antibodies bind to epitopes on the captured target protein. Amid each step of the procedure, a series of wash steps must be performed to ensure the elimination of non-specific binding between proteins to other proteins or to the solid phase. After incubation and "sandwiching" of the target antigen, a peroxidase enzyme is conjugated to the constant heavy chain of the secondary antibody (either covalently or via Avidin/Streptavidin-Biotin interactions), allowing for a colorimetricreaction to ensue upon substrate addition. When the substrate TMB (3, 3’, 5, 5’-Tetramethylbenzidine) is added, the reaction catalyzed by peroxidase yields a blue color that is representative of the antigen concentration. Upon sufficient color development, the reaction can be terminated through addition of Stop Solution (2 N Sulfuric Acid) where the color of the solution will turn yellow. The absorbance of each well can then be read by a spectrophotometer, allowing for generation of a standard curve and subsequent determination of protein concentration. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
