Principle of Assay
Human Complement C6 ELISA Kit (A6653) employs the sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique for the quantitative measurement of human Complement C6 in serum, plasma or other biological fluids. An antibody specific for Complement C6 has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microtiter plate. The standards and test samples are added into the wells and the Complement C6 present in each sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. Following incubation, the wells are washed and then incubated with Biotinylated Anti-Complement C6 Antibody, which binds the captured Complement C6 present in each well. HRP-Avidin conjugate is then added to the wells and the microtiter plate is incubated. Following incubation and washing, TMB substrate solution is then used to visualize the HRP enzymatic reaction by catalysis to produce a blue-coloured product that changes to yellow after addition of acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the amount of Complement C6 captured in each well. The concentration of Complement C6 can then be calculated by reading the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader and referring to the standard curve.
