Description
The Quantikine Human TIMP-1 Immunoassay is a 3.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure TIMP-1 concentrations in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, and saliva. It contains NS0-expressed recombinant human TIMP-1 and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. It has been shown to quantitate recombinant human TIMP-1 accurately. Results obtained using natural TIMP-1 showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curve obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural TIMP-1
