uniprot entry name :
APOM_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of APOM. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between APOM and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between APOM and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist in some cases.
storage stability :
Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C.

products description :
Principle of the assay: APOM ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-APOM antibody and an APOM-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with APOM-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the APOM concentration since APOM from samples and APOM-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-APOM antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by APOM from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind APOM-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The APOM concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is an apolipoprotein and member of the lipocalin protein family. It is found associated with high density lipoproteins and to a lesser extent with low density lipoproteins and triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. The encoded protein is secreted through the plasma membrane but remains membrane-bound, where it is involved in lipid transport. Alternate splicing results in both coding and non-coding variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
