Product details:
Human GDF-15 ELISA Kit ab155432 is a sandwich ELISA to measure Human GDF-15 in serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant with a sensitivity of 2 pg/ml.
How the assay works
This assay employs an antibody specific for Human GDF-15 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and GDF-15 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human GDF-15 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of GDF-15 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
Assay Specificity
Our ELISA kits are rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility. Please check the protocol booklet for more details
