uniprot entry name :
CALCA_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Monkey CGRP. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Monkey CGRP and analogues was observed. Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross- reactivity detection between Monkey CGRP and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist.
storage stability :
Store at 4 degree C.

Samples: Serum, Plasma, Biological Fluids. Assay Type: Sandwich. Detection Range: 15.625--1000pg/mL. Sensitivity: 9.375pg/mL
products description :
Description: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of CGRP in Monkey serum, plasma and other biological fluids. Principle of the Assay: This ELISA kit uses Sandwich-ELISA as the method. The micro ELISA plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Monkey CGRP. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate micro ELISA plate wells and bound by the specific antibody. Then a biotinylated detection antibody specific for Monkey CGRP and Avidin-Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugate is added to each micro plate well successively and incubated. Free components are washed away. The substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain Monkey CGRP, biotinylated detection antibody and Avidin-HRP conjugate will appear blue in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color turns yellow. The optical density (OD) is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm +/- 2 nm. The OD value is proportional to the concentration of alpha1-AGP. You can calculate the concentration of Monkey CGRP in the samples by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide and katacalcin by tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing of the gene transcripts and cleavage of inactive precursor proteins. Calcitonin is involved in calcium regulation and acts to regulate phosphorus metabolism. Calcitonin gene-related peptide functions as a vasodilator and as an antimicrobial peptide while katacalcin is a calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]
uniprot summary :
