ELISA Guinea Monoamine oxidase (MAO)

Reactivity:Guinea pig (Cavia) UniProt:N/A Abbreviation:MAO Alternative Names:N/A Application:ELISA Range:6.25-400 ?/mL Sensitivity:1.56 ?/mL Intra-AssayCV:?6.2% Inter-AssayCV:?7.8% Recovery:0.89 Sample Type:Serum, Plasma, Other biological fluids Detection Method:Sandwich Analysis Method??:Quantitive Test principle:This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate MAO in samples. An antibody specific for MAO has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyMAO present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjµgated antibody specific for MAO is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjµgated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of MAO bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured. Product Overview:This gene encodes monoamine oxidase A, an enzyme that degrades amine neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. The protein localizes to the mitochondrial outer membrane. The gene is adjacent to a related gene on the opposite strand of chromosome X. Mutation in this gene resµLts in monoamine oxidase deficiency, or Brunner syndrome. Stability:The stability of ELISA kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test. Keep the kit at 37°C for 4 and 7 days, and compare O.D.values of the kit kept at 37°C with that of at recommended temperature. (referring from China Biological Products Standard, which was calcµLated by the Arrhenius equation. For ELISA kit, 4 days storage at 37°C can be considered as 6 months at 2 - 8°C, which means 7 days at 37°C equaling 12 months at 2 - 8°C).
