Mouse Prealbumin/Transthyretin ELISA Kit

From Assay Genie, this colorimetric Sandwich ELISA (Double Antibody) is designed for the quantitative detection of mouse prealbumin/transthyretin. The assay targets a protein that transports thyroid hormones and vitamin A in the body, serves as a carrier for retinol-binding protein, and influences the distribution of thyroxine in tissues. It is intended for research applications relevant to nutritional deficiencies, liver disease, and familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy.

The kit accepts serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, and other liquid samples, and absorbance is read at 450 nm after TMB substrate development. Reported sensitivity is 0.469 ng/mL with a working range of 0.781-50 ng/mL. Storage is at 2-8°C for 12 months. Linearity is reported for serum (85-105% at 1:2, 89-101% at 1:4, 80-91% at 1:8), EDTA plasma (88-100%, 85-97%, 81-100%) and heparin plasma (88-103%, 87-99%, 83-97%) across n=5. Spike-and-recovery averages reach 96% for serum, 97% for EDTA plasma and 93% for heparin plasma (n=5). The kit is associated with UniProt P07309 and the research area of Signal Transduction. Synonyms include TTR, PALB, TBPA, ATTR, prealbumin, HsT2651, thyroxine-binding prealbumin and amyloidosis type I.
