Principle of Assay
Human STIP1/STI1 ELISA Kit (A5989) employs the sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique for the quantitative measurement of human STIP1/STI1 in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates or other biological fluids. An antibody specific for STIP1/STI1 has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microtiter plate. The standards and test samples are added into the wells and the STIP1/STI1 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-STIP1/STI1 Antibody, which binds the captured STIP1/STI1 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 STIP1/STI1 captured in each well. The concentration of STIP1/STI1 can then be calculated by reading the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader and referring to the standard curve.
