Mouse Bactericidal permeability-increasing protein (Bpi) ELISA Kit

Manufactured by Assay Genie, this Sandwich ELISA kit is intended for the quantitative measurement of mouse Bactericidal Permeability-Increasing Protein (BPI) in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernatants and other biological fluids. The assay has specificity for natural and recombinant mouse BPI and is supplied for research use only within the immunology field.

According to the manufacturer's specifications, the kit delivers a detection range of 78-5000 pg/mL with a sensitivity of 39.3 pg/mL. BPI is a secreted component of the innate immune system, membrane-associated in polymorphonuclear leukocyte granules, and exhibits cytotoxic activity against many Gram-negative bacteria via high-affinity binding to lipopolysaccharides in the bacterial outer envelope. The protein belongs to the BPI/LBP/Plunc superfamily and has a reported molecular weight of 54,352 Da.
