Description
This Human Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 5 (CD40) ELISA Kit is intended for quantitative detection of human CD40 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA), saliva, urine and human milk. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.
This human CD40 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for CD40 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (NSO, E21-R193) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for CD40 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human CD40 amount of sample captured in plate.
The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from mouse, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: CD40 is a cell surface receptor that is expressed on the surface of all mature B cells, most mature B-cell malignancies, and some early B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemias, but is not expressed on plasma cells. The CD40 gene is localized to the long arm of chromosome 20, bands q12-q13.2. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor has been found to be essential in mediating a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses including T cell-dependent immunoglobulin class switching, memory B cell development, and germinal center formation
