EliKine™ Human CRP ELISA Kit

C-reactive protein encoded by CRP gene belongs to the pentaxin family. It is involved in several host defense related functions based on its ability to recognize foreign pathogens and damaged cells of the host and to initiate their elimination by interacting with humoral and cellular effector systems in the blood. Consequently, the level of C-reactive protein in plasma increases greatly during acute phase response to tissue injury, infection, or other inflammatory stimuli.

EliKine™ Human CRP ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human CRP. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human CRP and analogues was observed.

EliKine™ Human CRP ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate CRP in samples. An antibody specific for CRP has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any CRP present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for CRP is added to the wells. After washing, proprietary EliKine™ Streptavidin-HRP conjugates is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound streptavidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of CRP 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.
