Description
The Quantikine Human TIMP-4 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure TIMP-4 levels in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, and human milk. It contains Sf 21-expressed recombinant human TIMP-4 and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. This kit detects recombinant human TIMP-4 in both free and MMP-bound forms. Natural human TIMP-4 showed dose-response curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the recombinant Quantikine kit standards, indicating that this kit can be used to determine relative levels of natural human TIMP-4
