Related Product Information for PG-A elisa kit
Intended Uses: This sandwich kit is for the accurate quantitative detection of human Pepsinogen A (also known as PG-A) in serum, plasma, cell culture supernates, cell lysates, tissue homogenates.
Principles of the Assay: This kit is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The plate has been pre-coated with human PG-A antibody. PG-A present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated human PG-A Antibody is added and binds to PG-A in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated PG-Aantibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of human PG-A. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein precursor of the digestive enzyme pepsin, a member of the peptidase A1 family of endopeptidases. The encoded precursor is secreted by gastric chief cells and undergoes autocatalytic cleavage in acidic conditions to form the active enzyme, which functions in the digestion of dietary proteins. This gene is found in a cluster of related genes on chromosome 11, each of which encodes one of multiple pepsinogens. Pepsinogen levels in serum may serve as a biomarker for atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

AAA164743) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA164743 ELISA Kit recognizes Human PG-A.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"Pepsinogen A, PG-A, 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
