Canine Glutathione peroxidase ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: GPX ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a polyclonal anti-GPX antibody and an GPX-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with GPX-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the GPX concentration since GPX from samples and GPX-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-GPX antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by GPX from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind GPX-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The GPX concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene product belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family, which functions in the detoxification of hydrogen peroxide. It contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue at its active site. The selenocysteine is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTR of Sec-containing genes have a common stem-loop structure, the sec insertion sequence (SECIS), which is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon rather than as a stop signal.

Product Notes
The Canine GSH-Px gpx3 (Catalog #AAA736920) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA736920 ELISA Kit recognizes Canine GSH-Px. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Glutathione peroxidase, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
