Alpha 1-Antitrypsin (Rat) ELISA Kit

• Description:

  Alpha 1-Antitrypsin is an inhibitor of serine proteases. Its primary target is elastase, but it also has a moderate affinity for plasmin and thrombin. Irreversibly inhibits trypsin, chymotrypsin, and plasminogen activator. The aberrant form inhibits insulin-induced NO synthesis in platelets, decreases coagulation time and has proteolytic activity against insulin and plasmin. BioVision’s Alpha 1-Antitrypsin (Rat) ELISA Kit is based on the Sandwich-ELISA principle. The micro ELISA plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Rat Alpha 1-Antitrypsin. Standards or samples are added to the micro ELISA plate wells that bind to the specific antibody. Then a biotinylated detection antibody specific for Rat Alpha 1-Antitrypsin and Avidin-Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugate are added successively to each micro plate well and incubated. The wells are washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and blue color develops in proportion to the amount of Alpha 1-Antitrypsin bound. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of stop solution and the color turns yellow. The optical density (OD) is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm. The OD value is proportional to the concentration of Rat Alpha 1-Antitrypsin. The concentration of Rat Alpha 1-Antitrypsinin the samples can be calculated by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
