Toll-like receptor 2 also known as TLR-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TLR2 gene. TLR2 has also been designated as CD282(cluster of differentiation 282). TLR-2 plays a role in the immune system. TLR-2 is a membrane protein, a receptor, which is expressed on the surface of certain cells and recognizes foreign substances and passes on appropriate signals to the cells of the immune system. TLR2 expresses as 4- and 4.4-kb mRNAs in heart, brain, and muscle.
Sample Type:Cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA)
Intended Use:For quantitative detection of mouse TLR2 in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA).
Sensitivity:<10pg/ml
Range:156-10,000pg/ml
Specificity:Natural and recombinant mouse TLR2
Test Principle:This mouse TLR2 BioAssay™ ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for TLR2 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for TLR2 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the mouse TLR2 amount of sample captured in plate.
Storage and Stability:Store powder at 4°C liquid at -20°C. Store other components at 4°C. Stable for at least 6 months For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
