Human Vascular endothelial cell growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2/Flk-1) ELISA Kit

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a major growth factor for endothelial cells. KDR encodes one of the two receptors of the VEGF. This receptor, known as kinase insert domain receptor, is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase. It functions as the main mediator of VEGF-induced endothelial proliferation, survival, migration, tubular morphogenesis and sprouting. The signalling and trafficking of this receptor are regulated by multiple factors, including Rab GTPase, P2Y purine nucleotide receptor, integrin alphaVbeta3, T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase, etc.. Mutations of KDR are implicated in infantile capillary hemangiomas.

Human Vascular endothelial cell growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2/Flk-1) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human KDR. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human KDR and analogues was observed.

This Human Vascular endothelial cell growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2/Flk-1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate KDR in samples. An antibody specific for KDR has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyKDR present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for KDR 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 KDR 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.
