Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis human AFP Sandwich ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for AFP has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: NSO, Immunogen sequence: R19-V609) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for AFP is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was 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 human AFP amount of sample captured in plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDetection Target: \u003c\/b\u003eAlpha Fetoprotein \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eUniprot ID: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprot\/P02771\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eP02771\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eReactivity: \u003c\/b\u003eHuman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCross-Reactivity: \u003c\/b\u003eThere is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRange: \u003c\/b\u003e78pg\/ml-5000pg\/ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSensitivity: \u003c\/b\u003e\u0026lt;10pg\/ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eStorage Conditions: \u003c\/b\u003eStore at 4?C for 6 months, at -20?C for 12 months.

Expression system for standard: Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP, ?-fetoprotein; also sometimes called alpha-1-fetoprotein, alpha-fetoglobulin, or alpha fetal protein) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AFP gene. The AFP gene is located on the q arm of chromosome 4 (4q25). AFP is the most abundant plasma protein found in the human fetus. Plasma levels decrease rapidly after birth but begin decreasing prenatally starting at the end of the first trimester. Normal adult levels are usually achieved by the age of 8 to 12 months. The function of AFP in adult humans is unknown; however, in rodents it binds estradiol to prevent the transport of this hormone across the placenta to the fetus. The main function of this is to prevent the virilization of female fetuses. As human AFP does not bind estrogen, its function in humans is less clear.; Immunogen sequence: 369 \u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/J7fuMk6JfyI?si=cvhwIRlxjJlTCI3m\"\u003eClick here\u003c\/a\u003e to view a video tutorial covering frequently asked questions regarding ELISA workflows.","brand":"Innovative Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31116872286288,"sku":"IHUAFPKT","price":744.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2297\/4065\/files\/8044494f-a574-4da9-a905-b780d80c69bf_42553dde-4b20-437d-b067-6836951a625f.jpg?v=1739977050","url":"https:\/\/www.innov-research.com\/products\/id688-human-alpha-fetoprotein-elisa-kit","provider":"Innovative Research","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
