Tissue Inhibitors Of Metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) BioAssay™ ELISA Kit (Sheep)

Serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids

The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of TIMP1 in ovine serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids.

0.122ng/ml

0.312-20ng/ml

This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Tissue Inhibitors Of Metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1). No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Tissue Inhibitors Of Metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) and analogues was observed.

Intra-Assay: CV<10%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%

The microplate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to TIMP1. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microplate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to TIMP1. 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 TIMP1, 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 TIMP1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
