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.
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.

Description: This Human Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein A (SP-A) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SFTPA1B in samples. An antibody specific for SFTPA1B has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any SFTPA1B present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SFTPA1B 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 SFTPA1B bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Background: SP-A (PRL) is a peptide hormone primarily associated with lactation. In breastfeeding, the infant suckling the teat stimulates the production of SP-A, which fills the breast with milk (lactogenesis) in preparation for the next feed. Oxytocin, a similar hormone, is also released, which triggers milk let-down. SP-A (PRL) is a polypeptide hormone secreted by anterior pituitary of both male and female. Release of SP-A is controlled by a complex neuroendocrine reflex initiated by a tactile stimulus and regulated by hypothalamic releasing and inhibition. Genetic variations in SFTPA1 are associated with respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants (RDS); also known as RDS in prematurity. RDS in the newborn is the main cause of mortality and morbidity in premature infants.

NCBI Description
This gene encodes a lung surfactant protein that is a member of a subfamily of C-type lectins called collectins. The encoded protein binds specific carbohydrate moieties found on lipids and on the surface of microorganisms. This protein plays an essential role in surfactant homeostasis and in the defense against respiratory pathogens. Mutations in this gene are associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Product Notes
The Human SP-A sftpa1 (Catalog #AAA9714340) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714340 ELISA Kit recognizes Human SP-A. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A (SP-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 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
