Species Reactivity
Human
Assay Type
Sandwich ELISA, Double Antibody
Samples
Serum, Plasma, Cell Culture Supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, Other liquid samples
Detection Range
0.781-50ng/ml
Sensitivity
0.469ng/ml
Specificity
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of MIF. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between MIF and analogues was observed. Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is difficult for us to complete the crossreactivity detection between MIF and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist.
Preparation and Storage
Store entire kit at 2-8C for short-term. For longer-term, please store the microplate & standard at -20C, while the remaining reagents can be stored at 2-8C
Inter-assay Precision
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle and high level MIF were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV (%) = SD/meanX100. Inter-Assay: CV<10%
Intra-assay Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle and high level MIF were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Intra-Assay: CV<8%
Molecular Weight
12,476 Da
OMIM
153620
ISO Certification
Manufactured in an ISO 13485:2003 and EN ISO 13485:2012 Certified Laboratory.

Other Notes

Small volumes of MIF elisa kit vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Searchable Terms for MIF purchase

MBS763962 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) ELISA Kit target analytes in biological samples. The concentration gradients of the kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical kit detection range in biological research samples containing MIF. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS763962 kit is based on MIF antibody-MIF antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect MIF antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, MIF. Appropriate sample types may include undiluted body fluids and/or tissue homogenates, secretions. Quality control assays assessing reproducibility identified the intra-assay CV (%) and inter-assay CV(%).

NCBI Summary for MIF

This gene encodes a lymphokine involved in cell-mediated immunity, immunoregulation, and inflammation. It plays a role in the regulation of macrophage function in host defense through the suppression of anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids. This lymphokine and the JAB1 protein form a complex in the cytosol near the peripheral plasma membrane, which may indicate an additional role in integrin signaling pathways.
