Human Lumican (LUM) ELISA Kit | KTE62236

Human Lumican (LUM) ELISA Kit | KTE62236 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Human Lumican (LUM) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate LUM in samples. An antibody specific for LUM has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyLUM present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for LUM 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 LUM 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.

Shipping: Gel pack with blue ice.

Background: Lumican is a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan family that includes decorin, biglycan, fibromodulin, keratocan, epiphycan, and osteoglycin. The protein moiety binds collagen fibrils and the highly charged hydrophilic glycosaminoglycans regulate interfibrillar spacings.Lumican is the major keratan sulfate proteoglycan of the cornea but is also distributed in interstitial collagenous matrices throughout the body. Lumican may regulate collagen fibril organization and circumferential growth, corneal transparency, and epithelial cell migration and tissue repair. Lumican belongs to the family of small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycans. Recent studies have shown that lumican participates in the maintenance of tissue homeostasis and modulates cellular functions including cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation.
