Rat TIMP1 ELISA Kit

KE20004 is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The TIMP1 ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous TIMP1. The assay recognizes rat TIMP1. An antibody specific for TIMP1 has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The TIMP1 protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another antibody of biotinylated specific for TIMP1 is added to detect the captured TIMP1 protein. For signal development, Streptavidin-HRP is added, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm.
