Mouse Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT) ELISA Kit | KTE71197

Mouse Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT) ELISA Kit | KTE71197 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Mouse Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate LCAT in samples. An antibody specific for LCAT has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyLCAT present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for LCAT 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 LCAT 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: Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase is an enzyme that converts free cholesterol into cholesteryl ester (a more hydrophobic form of cholesterol), which is then sequestered into the core of a lipoprotein particle, eventually making the newly synthesized HDL spherical and forcing the reaction to become unidirectional since the particles are removed from the surface. The enzyme is bound to high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and low-density lipoproteins in the blood plasma. An unusual feature of the message is that the poly (A) signal appears to overlap the COOH-terminal glutamic acid and stop codons. The protein has several extended sequences of hydrophobic amino acids, one of which is similar to sequences in pancreatic lipase and lingual lipase.
