Human Prorelaxin H1 (Relaxin 1) ELISA Kit

This Human Prorelaxin H1 (Relaxin 1) ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of human Relaxin 1 in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin). Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human Relaxin 1 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for Relaxin 1 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(E.coli,R162-Cys185 (A) & K26-S53 (B)) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Relaxin 1 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 Relaxin 1 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: Relaxin 1 is a member of relaxin-like peptide family. Relaxin gene maps to human chromosome 19 near D19Mit23. Relaxin is a peptide hormone produced by the corpora lutea of ovaries during pregnancy in many mammalian species, including man. Relaxin widens the pubic bone and facilitates labor, it also softens the cervix (cervical ripening), and relaxes the uterine musculature. However, its significance may reach much further. Relaxin affects collagen metabolism, inhibiting collagen synthesis and enhancing its breakdown by increasing matrix metalloproteinases. It also enhances angiogenesis and is a potent renal vasodilator.; Immunogen sequence: 369
