For the quantitative determination of mouse monocyte chemotactic protein 2 in serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates. Sensitivity: 1.56pg/ml Detection Range: 6.25-400pg/ml Specificity: This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of mouse MCP-2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between mouse MCP-2 and analogues was observed. Assay Principle: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for MCP-2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any MCP-2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for MCP-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 MCP-2 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
