Hemoglobin (HB) BioAssay™ ELISA Kit (Porcine) is a competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay for the in vitro quantitative measurement of HB in porcine serum, plasma and erythrocyte lysates.
Detection Range:3.70-300ug/ml
Sensitivity:1.42ug/ml
Intra-Assay CV:<10%
Inter-Assay CV:<12%
Test Principle:This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. A monoclonal antibody specific for porcine HB has been pre-coated onto a microplate. A competitive inhibition reaction occurs between biotin-labeled porcine HB and unlabeled porcine HB (standards or samples) with the pre-coated antibody specific for porcine HB. After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. Next, avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. The amount of bound HRP conjugate is inversely proportional to the concentration of HB in the sample. After addition of the substrate solution, the intensity of the color developed is inversely proportional to the concentration of HB in the sample.
Precaution:The Stop Solution (025603K) included for use with this kit is an acid solution. Wear eye, hand, face, and clothing protection when using this material.
Storage and Stability:Store *025603A, *025603B, *025603D and *025603E at -20°C. Store all the other components at 4°C. Unused kit is stable for 6 months. Once kit components are opened, it is highly recommended to use remaining reagents within 1 month provided this is within the expiration date of the kit. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vials after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
