Description
The Eagle Biosciences Mouse Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 2 (MIP-2) ELISA Assay Kit employs quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. A monoclonal antibody specific for MIP-2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any MIP-2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. Following incubation unbound samples are removed during a wash step, and then a detection antibody specific for MIP-2 is added to the wells and binds to the combination of capture antibody-MIP-2 in sample. Following a wash to remove any unbound combination, and enzyme conjugate is added to the wells. Following incubation and wash steps a substrate is added. A colored product is formed in proportion to the amount of MIP-2 present in the sample. The reaction is terminated by addition of acid and absorbance is measured at 450nm. A standard curve is prepared from seven MIP-2 standard dilutions and MIP-2 sample concentration determined
