Mouse C Reactive Protein ELISA Kit (ab222511) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of C Reactive Protein protein in cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, serum, and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse C Reactive Protein with 31 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies- Fully validated in biological samples- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.
Notes
C Reactive Protein displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. C Reactive Protein can interact with DNA and histones and it may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells. C Reactive Protein is secreted; it forms a homopentamer pentaxin (or pentraxin) which have a discoid arrangement of 5 non-covalently bound subunits. C Reactive Protein binds 2 calcium ions per subunit. The concentration of C Reactive Protein in plasma increases greatly during acute phase response to tissue injury, infection or other inflammatory stimuli. It is induced by IL1/interleukin-1and IL6//interleukin-6.
