Human Zinc transporter 3 (SLC30A3) ELISA Kit

Designed for research use only, this ELISA kit from Assay Genie enables quantitative measurement of human Zinc transporter 3 (SLC30A3) in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. The assay is reactive with human samples and shows specificity for natural and recombinant human Zinc transporter 3. Zinc transporter 3 is a multi-pass membrane protein that plays a critical role in transporting zinc ions across cellular membranes; zinc is an essential mineral involved in numerous cellular processes, including cell growth, immune function and DNA synthesis.

Manufacturer-reported performance characteristics include a detection range of 0.156–10 ng/mL and a sensitivity of 0.098 ng/mL, with intra-assay precision of 4.6% and inter-assay precision of 8.3%. Recovery in serum averages 100% (range 94–106%) and in plasma averages 102% (range 96–108%). The kit is configured as a Competitive ELISA and includes a dismountable microplate, lyophilised standard, sample and assay diluents, detection reagents, wash buffer, substrate, stop solution and plate sealer.

Zinc transporter 3 (UniProt Q99726) is located on synaptic, secretory and endosomal vesicles and is involved in the accumulation of zinc in synaptic vesicles.
