Human Bordetella pertussis IgM antibody ELISA Kit | KTE62573 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Human Bordetella pertussis IgM antibody ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate IgM in samples. An antibody specific for IgM has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyIgM present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for IgM is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of IgM bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

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.

Storage Instruction: The unopened kit should be stored at 2 - 8°C. After opening, please store refer to protocols.

Background: Bordetella pertussis is a Gram-negative, aerobic, pathogenic, encapsulated coccobacillus of the genus Bordetella, and the causative agent of pertussis or whooping cough. Unlike B. bronchiseptica, B. pertussis is not motile. Its virulence factors include pertussis toxin, filamentous hæmagglutinin, pertactin, fimbria, and tracheal cytotoxin. The bacterium is spread by airborne droplets; its incubation period is 9–10 days on average (range 6–20 days) . Humans are the only known reservoir for B. pertussis. The complete B. pertussis genome of 4, 086, 186 base pairs was published in 2003.
