Biosensis is proud to offer the first commercially available ApoE/β-amyloid (ApoE/Aβ) complex ELISA kit. As a result of extensive collaboration with Dr. LaDu’s laboratory at UIC and validation by Biosensis, this ELISA can be used to accurately and consistently measure the extent of ApoE/Aβ complex in tissue extracts and other samples.
The Biosensis ApoE/Aβ Complex ELISA kit is a sandwich ELISA and consists of a pre-coated mouse monoclonal anti-Aβ capture antibody, a highly validated ApoE/Aβ complex standard that is pre-formed, lyophilized and ready for reconstitution, a biotinylated ApoE detection antibody, and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin and detection reagent.
The addition of a substrate (3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine, TMB) yields a colored reaction product which is directly proportional to the level of ApoE/Aβ complex present in samples and protein standards. Importantly, a well-characterized and unique ApoE/Aβ complex is included as a standard. This complex is pre-formed and lyophilized, requiring only reconstitution with assay diluent prior to use. In order to assess non-specific ApoE protein binding, each kit includes additional plates pre-coated with control antibody.
The purpose of this kit is the in vitro qualitative measurement of ApoE/Aβ complexes in brain extracts and CSF samples from both transgenic mice and humans or primates, relative to a known ApoE/Aβ complex standard, only if used as directed. This kit has not been tested for other sample applications.
Delivery information: The ELISA kit box contains 2 or 4×96-well pre-coated strip plates (1 plate MOAB-2 antibody coated, 1 plate control antibody coated), protein standards, detection reagents, wash and sample buffers, substrate buffer and detailed protocols.
Caution: This kit has been configured for research use only and is not to be used in diagnostic or clinical procedures.
