Description
The Quantikine Human MMP-9 Immunoassay is a 3.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure MMP-9 (92 kDa pro- and 82 kDa active forms but not the 65 kDa form) in cell culture supernates, saliva, serum, plasma, and urine. It is calibrated with CHO cell-expressed recombinant human pro-MMP-9 and the antibodies were raised against the recombinant factor. Natural human MMP-9 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 mass values of natural human MMP-9
