Intended Uses: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of UGT8 in human tissue homogenates and other biological fluids.
Principle of the Assay: The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to UGT8. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to UGT8. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain UGT8, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm +/- 10nm. The concentration of UGT8 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family. It catalyzes the transfer of galactose to ceramide, a key enzymatic step in the biosynthesis of galactocerebrosides, which are abundant sphingolipids of the myelin membrane of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

Product Notes
The Human UGT8 ugt8 (Catalog #AAA455099) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA455099 ELISA Kit recognizes Human UGT8. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "UDP Glycosyltransferase 8 (UGT8), 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
