Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (C-MET/HGFR) BioAssay™ ELISA Kit (Mouse)

For the quantitative determination of mouse Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (C-MET/HGFR) concentrations in serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates.

Sensitivity:
0.02ng/ml

Detection Range:
0.078-5ng/ml

Specificity:
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of mouse C-MET/HGFR. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between mouse C-MET/HGFR and analogues was observed.

Assay Principle:
This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for C-MET/HGFR has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any C-MET/HGFR present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for C-MET/HGFR 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 C-MET/HGFR bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
