Mouse Oncomodulin (Ocm) ELISA Kit

A high-quality sandwich ELISA from Assay Genie designed for the quantitative determination of mouse oncomodulin. According to the manufacturer, oncomodulin is a protein that has been described as playing a critical role in cancer development and progression, making it a valuable biomarker for studying cancer biology and potentially developing new therapeutic approaches. The target is also known by the synonyms Parvalbumin beta and OM, and the assay is directed against the protein entry UniProt P51879.

Assay performance characteristics reported by the manufacturer include a detection range of 78–5000 pg/mL and a sensitivity of 40.4 pg/mL. Precision values quoted are an intra-assay CV of 6.8% and an inter-assay CV of 9.1%. Linearity has been evaluated in serum, EDTA plasma and heparin plasma at dilution factors of 1:2, 1:4, 1:8 and 1:16 (N=5), with recovery averaging 91% (range 85–97%) in serum and 93% (range 87–99%) in plasma.

The kit is validated for use with serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, and recognises both natural and recombinant mouse oncomodulin. It is positioned within the neurosciences research area and is supplied for research use only. Reagent storage conditions vary by component, and the manufacturer directs users to the kit insert for exact storage details.
