ELISA Kit for Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1)

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for Antigen Detection.

Canis familiaris; Canine (Dog)

3h

This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1).

No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1) and analogues was observed.

The stability of 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.

To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.

The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1). Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1). Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1), biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
