Rat Kallikrein-6 (KLK6) ELISA Kit

Kallikrein 6, also known as Zyme, Neurosin, PRSS9, myelencephalon-specific protease (MSP) and protease M, is a trypsin-like serine proteinase. Kallikrein 6 was originally described from the brain as an enzyme involved in degradation of amyloid plaque protein (APP) and hK6 was thought to be a beta secretase. Kallikrein 6 was shown to be elevated in the sera patients with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease and in animal models of multiple sclerosis. The neuronal protein alpha-synuclein was shown to be cleaved by hK6, as has APP and hK6 has been implicated in vascular morphogenesis and angiogenesis. MSP has also been shown to rapidly degrade myelin-specific protein, laminin and fibronectin.

Rat Kallikrein-6 (KLK6) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Rat KLK6. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Rat KLK6 and analogues was observed.

This Rat Kallikrein-6 (KLK6) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate KLK6 in samples. An antibody specific for KLK6 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyKLK6 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for KLK6 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of KLK6 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

• Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
