Product Info

• Predicted Species Reactivity: Rat|Rattus norvegicus
• Application: Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent assay-Sandwich
• ELISA Kit Detection Method: Colorimetric
• ELISA Kit Duration: 3h
• ELISA Kit Principle: 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 Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL). Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL). 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 Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), 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 Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
• ELISA Kit Range: 0.78-50ng/mL
• ELISA Kit Reproducibility: Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.

• Description of Target: Iron-trafficking protein involved in multiple processes such as apoptosis, innate immunity and renal development. Binds iron through association with 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,5-DHBA), a siderophore that shares structural similarities with bacterial enterobactin, and delivers or removes iron from the cell, depending on the context. Iron-bound form (holo-24p3) is internalized following binding to the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor, leading to release of iron and subsequent increase of intracellular iron concentration. In contrast, association of the iron-free form (apo-24p3) with the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor is followed by association with an intracellular siderophore, iron chelation and iron transfer to the extracellular medium, thereby reducing intracellular iron concentration. Involved in apoptosis due to interleukin-3 (IL3) deprivation: iron-loaded form increases intracellular iron concentration without promoting apoptosis, while iron-free form decreases intracellular iron levels, inducing expression of the proapoptotic protein BCL2L11/BIM, resulting in apoptosis. Involved in innate immunity, possibly by sequestrating iron, leading to limit bacterial growth (By similarity).
