Human Troponin C, skeletal muscle (TNNC2) ELISA Kit

The troponin C protein is the calcium-binding subunit of the troponin complex. It occurs in 2 distinct isoforms: fast skeletal troponin C, which is expressed exclusively in fast-twitch skeletal muscle, and slow/cardiac troponin C, which is expressed in both cardiac and slow-twitch skeletal muscle. Gahlmann and Kedes (1990) described the structure and sequence of the gene for fast-twitch troponin C. By PCR-based analysis of a monochromosomal hybrid panel followed by analysis of the Genebridge 4 radiation hybrid panel, Townsend et al. (1997) mapped the TNNC2 gene to chromosome 20. Tiso et al. (1997) independently mapped the TNNC2 gene to 20q12-q13.11 using PCR of radiation hybrids.

Human Troponin C, skeletal muscle (TNNC2) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human TNNC2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human TNNC2 and analogues was observed.

This Human Troponin C, skeletal muscle (TNNC2) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate TNNC2 in samples. An antibody specific for TNNC2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyTNNC2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for TNNC2 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 TNNC2 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.
