Description
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs the sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Capture antibody is coated onto a 96 well microplate. Calibrator and test samples are pipetted into the appropriate wells. Etanercept present in biological matrices is bound by the immobilized anti-Etanercept antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, enzyme linked anti-Etanercept antibody is added to the wells. The plate is washed to remove any unbound antibody-enzyme reagent and a substrate solution is added to the wells for color development. The color development is proportional to the amount of Etanercept present in test samples. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured:
