Protein Standards for Rat Oxidative Stress ELISA Strip (EA-1501 EA-1831)

Principle

Each well of the strip is coated with a specific capture antibody to detect its corresponding cytokine in the sample. Therefore, 8 different proteins can be measures simultaneously. The test sample reacts simultaneously with two antibodies, resulting in the cytokines being sandwiched between the solid phase and enzyme-linked antibodies. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound-labeled antibodies. The HRP substrate, TMB, is then added and causes a blue color change. The reaction is then terminated with Stop Solution, resulting in a yellow color. The concentrations of oxidative stress cytokines are directly proportional to the color intensity of the test sample. Absorbance is measured spectrophotometrically at 450 nm. The expression levels of these cytokines can be quantitatively compared between samples.
