. INTENDED USE
This T3 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the
quantitative determination of Chicken T3. This ELISA kit for research use
only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!
. PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY
T3 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique
utilizing a monoclonal anti-T3 antibody and an T3-HRP conjugate. The
assay sample and buffer are incubated together with T3-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 T3 concentration since
T3 from samples and T3-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-T3 antibody
binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are
occupied by T3 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind T3-HRP
conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color
(O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The T3 concentration in each
sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
