Usage Notes
* Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2-8 degree C.

Related Product Information for PACAP elisa kit
Description: This Human Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate ADCYAP1 in samples. An antibody specific for ADCYAP1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any ADCYAP1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for ADCYAP1 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of ADCYAP1 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background: Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide, adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide 1. Mediated by adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide 1 receptors, this polypeptide stimulates adenylate cyclase and subsequently increases the cAMP level in target cells. Adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide 1 not only is a hypophysiotropic hormone but also functions as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In addition, it plays a role in paracrine and autocrine regulation of certain types of cells. This gene is composed of five exons. Exons 1 and 2 encode the 5' UTR and signal peptide, respectively; exon 4 encodes an adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide 1-related peptide; and exon 5 encodes the mature peptide and 3' UTR.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a secreted proprotein that is further processed into multiple mature peptides. These peptides stimulate adenylate cyclase and increase cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels, resulting in the transcriptional activation of target genes. The products of this gene are key mediators of neuroendocrine stress responses. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]

Uniprot Description

ADCYAP1: Binding to its receptor activates G proteins and stimulates adenylate cyclase in pituitary cells. Belongs to the glucagon family.

Product Notes

The Human PACAP adcyap1 (Catalog #AAA9714598) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714598 ELISA Kit recognizes Human PACAP. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase Activating Polypeptide (PACAP), 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.
