Human Cathepsin L ELISA Kit

This Human Cathepsin L ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of human Cathepsin L in cell culture supernates, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human Cathepsin L ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for Cathepsin L has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, E113-V333) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Cathepsin L 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 Cathepsin L amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from mouse, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Cathepsin L is an important lysosomal endopeptidase enzyme which is involved in the initiation of protein degradation. It also shows the most potent collagenolytic and elastinolytic activity in vitro of any of the cathepsins. The gene is mapped to 9q21-q22. It is a member of the Peptidase C1 family, which play an important role in diverse processes including normal lysosome mediated protein turnover, antigen and proprotein processing, and apoptosis. Cathepsin L has been reported in many organisms including fish, birds and mammals. ; Immunogen sequence: 399
