Human Trace amine-associated receptor 8 (TAAR8) ELISA Kit

This Human Trace amine-associated receptor 8 (TAAR8) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate TAAR8.

Product Specifications

Background

TAAR8 is part of the trace amine receptor cluster on chromosome 6 and encodes an orphan G-protein coupled receptor. Upregulated expression of TAAR8 in astroglial cells upon exposure to lipopolysaccharides suggests a function for Trace amine-associated receptor 8 in the brain.

Applications Notes

This Human Trace amine-associated receptor 8 (TAAR8) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate TAAR8 in samples. An antibody specific for TAAR8 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyTAAR8 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for TAAR8 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 TAAR8 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Recommended Usage

• 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.
