Description
Intended Uses: This sandwich kit is for the accurate quantitative detection of human Beta, Beta-carotene 9',10'-oxygenase (also known as BCO2) in serum, plasma, cell culture supernates, cell lysates, tissue homogenates.
Principle of the Assay: This kit is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The plate has been pre-coated with human BCO2 antibody. BCO2 present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated human BCO2 Antibody is added and binds to BCO2 in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated BCO2 antibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of human BCO2. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm
