For the quantitative determination of mouse B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 concentrations in serum and plasma. Sensitivity: 3.9pg/ml Detection Range: 15.6-1000pg/ml Specificity: This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of mouse Bcl-2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between mouse Bcl-2 and analogues was observed Assay Principle: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for Bcl-2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any Bcl-2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for Bcl-2 is added to the wells. After washing, avidin 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 Bcl-2 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
