Target
Tacrolimus (also FK-506 or fujimycin, trade names Prograf, Advagraf, Protopic) is an immunosuppressive drug that is mainly used after allogeneic organ transplant to reduce the activity of the patient's immune system and so lower the risk of organ rejection. It is also used in a topical preparation in the treatment of atopic dermatitis (eczema), severe refractory uveitis after bone marrow transplants, exacerbations of minimal change disease, and the skin condition vitiligo. It is a 23-membered macrolide lactone discovered in 1984 from the fermentation broth of a Japanese soil sample that contained the bacteria Streptomyces tsukubaensis. It reduces interleukin-2 (IL-2) production by T-cells.

Assay Principle
Aviva Systems Biology Tacrolimus ELISA Kit (OKEH02586) is based on a competitive enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter well-plate in this kit has been pre-coated with an anti-Tacrolimus antibody. Sample or standards are added to the wells along with a fixed quantity of biotinylated Tacrolimus and incubated. The Tacrolimus found in the sample or standards competes with the biotinylated Tacrolimus for limited binding sites on the immobilized anti-Tacrolimus antibody. Excess unbound biotinylated Tacrolimus and sample or standard Tacrolimus is washed from the plate. Avidin-HRP conjugate is added, incubated and washed. An enzymatic reaction is then produced through the addition of TMB substrate which is catalyzed by the immobilized HRP to generate a blue color product that changes yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is measured by reading the absorbance at 450 nm which is quantitatively proportional to the amount of biotinylated Tacrolimus captured in the well and inversely proportional to the amount of Tacrolimus which was contained in the sample or standard.
