Human Peroxiredoxin-6 (PRDX6) ELISA Kit

Peroxiredoxin-6 is a member of the thiol-specific antioxidant protein family. This protein is a bifunctional enzyme with two distinct active sites. It is involved in redox regulation of the cell; it can reduce H (2) O (2) and short chain organic, fatty acid, and phospholipid hydroperoxides. It may play a role in the regulation of phospholipid turnover as well as in protection against oxidative injury. Kim et al. (1997) isolated a calcium-independent lysosomal PLA2 from a human myeloblast cell line. The predicted 224-amino acid protein contained the PLA2 catalytic motif, but no other significant homology to known phospholipases. Expressed protein had significant PLA2 activity on several substrates.

Human Peroxiredoxin-6 (PRDX6) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human PRDX6. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human PRDX6 and analogues was observed.

This Human Peroxiredoxin-6 (PRDX6) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PRDX6 in samples. An antibody specific for PRDX6 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyPRDX6 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for PRDX6 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 PRDX6 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.
