Human EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) ELISA Kit | EGF elisa kit
Human EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) Pre-Coated ELISA Kit
This kit was based on sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. Anti- Human EGF antibody was pre-coated into 96-well plates. Biotin conjugated anti-human EGF detection antibody was used. Standards, test samples and biotin conjugated detection antibody were added to the wells subsequently. Wash buffer was used to wash any non-specific binding. HRP conjugated Streptavidin was used as secondary antibody. TMB substrates were used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Human EGF amount of samples captured in the plate. Optical Density (O.D) can be read at absorbance 450 nm in a microplate reader. Concentration of Human EGF can be calculated using the standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor superfamily. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the 53-amino acid epidermal growth factor peptide. This protein acts a potent mitogenic factor that plays an important role in the growth, proliferation and differentiation of numerous cell types. This protein acts by binding with high affinity to the cell surface receptor, epidermal growth factor receptor. Defects in this gene are the cause of hypomagnesemia type 4. Dysregulation of this gene has been associated with the growth and progression of certain cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
Uniprot Description
EGF stimulates the growth of various epidermal and epithelial tissues in vivo and in vitro and of some fibroblasts in cell culture. Magnesiotropic hormone that stimulates magnesium reabsorption in the renal distal convoluted tubule via engagement of EGFR and activation of the magnesium channel TRPM6. Can induce neurite outgrowth in motoneurons of the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis in vitro (PubMed:10964941).

Product Notes
The Human EGF egf (Catalog #AAA669147) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA669147 ELISA Kit recognizes Human EGF. AAA Biotech's EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EGF egf for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), 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
