Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, mature (BDNF, mature), Human, CE-Marked ELISA assay-2 Plate Kit

The Biosensis CE Marked BDNF Rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) Kit is a sandwich ELISA that allows the preferential quantification of mature BDNF in less than 3 hours. This kit consists of a pre-coated mouse monoclonal anti-BDNF capture antibody, a biotinylated anti-BDNF detection antibody and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin. The addition of a substrate (3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, TMB) yields a colored reaction product which is directly proportional to the concentration of BDNF present in samples and protein standards. This BDNF ELISA kit employs a recombinant human BDNF standard approved by the World Health Organization (WHO, www.nibsc.org). This kit is suitable to measure mature BDNF in human serum and citrate-treated plasma samples only. The antibodies used in this ELISA kit bind epitopes within the mature domain of the protein and therefore recognize the mature as well as the pro-form of BDNF. However, cross-reactivity to the full-length proBDNF protein is low.

This CE Marked BDNF Rapid ELISA [Cat. No. BEK-2211-CE] Kit is approved for in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) applications in the European Economic Area (EEA). It has been developed by Biosensis and is manufactured by Calbiotech Inc. (www.calbiotech.com) for Biosensis.

BEK-2211-CE is not approved for in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) applications in the United States. For research on human blood, customers MUST order the catalog number BEK-2211. This research-use-only ELISA kit can be used for human and animal research purposes worldwide, and has been validated for a wider range of sample types and species.
