Human Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein ELISA Kit

A sandwich ELISA kit from Antibodies.com is designed for the in vitro quantitative determination of human CETP (Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein) in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates or other biological fluids. The assay employs the sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique using a pre-coated microplate and is read colorimetrically at 450 nm in a microplate reader.

The reported range is 1.56-100 ng/ml with a sensitivity of 0.68 ng/ml, and total assay time is 4h 30m. Recovery in serum ranges from 80% to 102% (average 91%), in EDTA plasma from 81% to 100% (average 90%), and in heparin plasma from 80% to 89% (average 84%). Dilution linearity (1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16) for serum (n=5) is 87-91%, 87-107%, 74-101%, and 92-97%; for EDTA plasma (n=5), 90-105%, 84-101%, 90-101%, and 79-108%; for heparin plasma (n=5), 84-95%, 92-105%, 82-105%, and 89-91%. Kit components should be stored at +4°C or -20°C as instructed and the product should not be used past its expiration date.

CETP is also known as cholesteryl ester transfer protein or lipid transfer protein I.
