Description:
Short Description: Transferrin (TX) is a metal-combining protein that reversibly binds to acid-soluble iron in plasma. It functions to transport iron to the bone marrow and to tissue storage organs such as the liver. Transferrin also participate in the regulation and control of iron absorption and protects against iron intoxication. Like haptoglobin, the carrier of hemoglobin, transferrin is synthesized in the liver, but unlike haptoglobin transferrin is returned to the circulation after unloading its iron in the reticuloendothelial system. This
ELISA kit can be used to measure transferrin in serum, tissue extracts and other biological fluids.

Kit Principle Genway Biotech Transferrin ELISA Kit (Rat) (GWB-2C5ED4) is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay technology. An antibody for Serotransferrin has been pre-coated onto a 96-wellplate (12 x 8 Well Strips). Standards or test samples are added to the wells, incubated and washed to remove unbound proteins. An Anti-Serotransferrin - HRP conjugated detector antibody is then added, incubated and unbound conjugate is washed away. An enzymatic reaction is produced through the addition of TMB substrate which is catalyzed by HRP generating a blue color product that changes to yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration read by absorbance at 450 nm is quantitatively proportional to the amount of sample Serotransferrin captured in the well. |
