This Rat Kidney Injury Molecule 1 (KIM-1) ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of rat KIM1 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA) and urine. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This rat KIM1 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for KIM1 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, S18-V238) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for KIM1 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 rat KIM1 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: KIM1(TIM-1), also known as Hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1, is a protein that in Rat is encoded by the HAVCR1 gene. Infection of canine osteogenic sarcoma cells expressing HAVCR1 with HAV led to conclude that the protein is indeed a receptor for the virus. Immunofluorescence microscopy demonstrated internalization of HAV by dog cells expressing HAVCR1. Using a monoclonal antibody to rat Tim1, Tim1 was expressed after activation of naive T cells and on T cells differentiated in Th2-polarizing conditions. By homology of synteny with the rat Tim1 gene and database analysis, was mapped the HAVCR1 gene to 5q33.2.; Immunogen sequence: 380
