Human N-Acetyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro (AcSDKP) ELISA Kit

Acetyl Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro is formed in bone marrow cells by enzymatic processing of thymosin β4. It inhibits the entry of pluripotent hemopoietic stem cells into S-phase of the cell cycle and protects against Ara-C lethality in mice. Acetyl Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro is also a specific substrate for the N-terminal active site of angiotensin-converting enzyme, which is responsible for its degradation in vivo.

Human N-Acetyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro (AcSDKP) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human AcSDKP. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human AcSDKP and analogues was observed.

This Human N-Acetyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro (AcSDKP) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate AcSDKP in samples. An antibody specific for AcSDKP has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyAcSDKP present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for AcSDKP 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 AcSDKP 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.
