This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of COX-2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between COX-2 and analogues was observed. NOTE: cross-reactivity detection between COX-2 and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist in some cases.

Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C.

Samples: Serum, plasma, cell culture supernatants, body fluid and tissue homogenate. Assay Type: Sandwich. Sensitivity: 0.1 ng/mL.

Intended Uses: This COX-2 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Mouse COX-2. This ELISA kit for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!. Principle of the Assay COX-2 ELISA kit applies the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate has been pre-coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for COX-2. Standards or samples are then added to the microtiter plate wells and COX-2 if present, will bind to the antibody pre-coated wells. In order to quantitatively determine the amount of COX-2 present in the sample, a standardized preparation of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated polyclonal antibody, specific for COX-2 are added to each well to "sandwich" the COX-2 immobilized on the plate. The microtiter plate undergoes incubation, and then the wells are thoroughly washed to remove all unbound components. Next, substrate solutions are added to each well. The enzyme (HRP) and substrate are allowed to react over a short incubation period. Only those wells that contain COX-2 and enzyme-conjugated antibody will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The COX-2 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), also known as cyclooxygenase, is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis, and acts both as a dioxygenase and as a peroxidase. There are two isozymes of PTGS: a constitutive PTGS1 and an inducible PTGS2, which differ in their regulation of expression and tissue distribution. This gene encodes the inducible isozyme. It is regulated by specific stimulatory events, suggesting that it is responsible for the prostanoid biosynthesis involved in inflammation and mitogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
