Human Anti-toxoplasma IgA antibody (TOX-Ab-IgA) ELISA Kit | KTE62707

Human Anti-toxoplasma IgA antibody (TOX-Ab-IgA) ELISA Kit | KTE62707 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Human Anti-toxoplasma IgA antibody (TOX-Ab-IgA) ELISA Kit employs the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to TOX-Ab-IgA. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) -conjugated TOX-Ab-IgA and incubated. The competitive inhibition reaction is launched between with HRP labeled TOX-Ab-IgA and unlabeled TOX-Ab-IgA with the antibody. A substrate solution is added to the wells and the color develops in opposite to the amount of TOX-Ab-IgA in the sample. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Detection Method: Colorimetric

Conjugate: N/A

Sample Type: Cell culture supernatants#Serum#Plasma#Other biological fluids

Assay Type: Multiple steps standard sandwich ELISA assay with a working time of 3-5 hours. It depends on the experience of the operation person.

Usage Note: • Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.
• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.

Background: Toxoplasma gondii causes toxoplasmosis, a common disease that affects 30-50 of every 100 people in North America by the time they are adults. The mean source of infection is direct contact with cat feces or from eating undercooked meats. Toxoplasmosis generally presents with mild symptoms in immunocompetent individuals; in the immunocompromised patient, however, the infection can have serious consequences. Acute toxoplasmosis in pregnant women can result in result in miscarriage, poor growth, early delivery or stillbirth. Treatment of an infected pregnant woman may prevent or lessen the disease in her unborn child. Treatment of an infected infant will also lessen the severity of the disease as the child grows. IgG and IgM antibodies to Toxoplasma can be detected with 2-3 weeks after exposure. IgG remains positive, but the antibody level drops overtime. ELISA can detect Toxoplasma IgM antibody after one year after infection in over 50% of patients. Therefore, IgM positive results should be evaluated further with one or two follow up samples if primary infection is suspected.
