Mouse Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (Plau) ELISA Kit

From Assay Genie, this Sandwich ELISA kit enables the quantitative detection of mouse Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (PLAU), a secreted serine protease that specifically cleaves the zymogen plasminogen to form the active enzyme plasmin. The assay is intended for research use only and supports work within the Neurosciences research area, measuring PLAU levels in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids.

Performance specifications quoted by the manufacturer include a detection range of 93.75–6000 pg/mL and a sensitivity of 46.875 pg/mL, with an intra-assay CV of 5.1% and an inter-assay CV of 7.3%. The kit demonstrates dilution linearity across serum (80–104%), EDTA plasma (81–116%) and heparin plasma (80–114%) at 1:2 to 1:16 sample dilutions, together with recovery of 85% (range 80–91%) in serum and 87% (range 81–93%) in plasma. Specificity is reported for natural and recombinant mouse Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (UniProt P06869).
