Description
Intended Uses: This sandwich kit is for the accurate quantitative detection of human Alpha 1-Antitrypsin (also known as A1-AT) in serum, plasma, cell culture supernates, cell lysates, tissue homogenates.
Principles of the Assay: This kit is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The plate has been pre-coated with human A1-AT antibody. A1-AT present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated human A1-AT Antibody is added and binds to A1-AT in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated A1-AT 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 A1-AT. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm
