BDNF ELISA Kit for Monkey

Principle of the Assay: This kit was based on sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. Anti-BDNF polyclonal antibody was pre-coated onto 96-well plates. And the biotin conjugated anti-BDNF polyclonal antibody was used as detection antibodies. The standards, test samples and biotin conjugated detection antibody were added to the wells subsequently, and wash with wash buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with wash buffer. TMB substrates were used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the BDNF amount of sample captured in plate. Read the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader, and then the concentration of BDNF can be calculated.

Background: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, also known as BDNF, is a prosurvival factor induced by cortical neurons that is necessary for survival of striatal neurons in the brain. BDNF is a member of the "neurotrophin" family of growth factors, which are related to the NGF. It acts on certain neurons of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system, helping to support the survival of existing neurons, and encourage the growth and differentiation of new neurons and synapses. In the brain, it is active in the hippocampus, cortex, and basal forebrain—areas vital to learning, memory, and higher thinking. Post mortem analysis has shown lowered levels of BDNF in the brain tissues of people with Alzheimer's disease.

Small volumes of BDNF 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.

MBS355845 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip-or-full plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the BDNF, 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 BDNF. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS355845 kit is based on BDNF antibody-BDNF antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect BDNF antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, BDNF. 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(%).
