Intended Uses: The West Nile Virus IgG and IgM tests are qualitative immunoassays for the demonstration of human antibodies in serum or plasma directed against West Nile virus.
Principle of the Assay: The ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay) is an immunoassay, which is particularly suited to the determination of antibodies in various kinds of samples. The reaction is based on the specific interaction of antibodies with their corresponding antigen. The test strips of the microtiter plate are coated with specific antigens of the pathogen of interest. If antibodies in the sample are present, they bind to the fixed antigen. A secondary antibody, which has been conjugated with the enzyme alkaline phosphatase, detects and binds to the immune complex. The colourless substrate p-nitrophenylphosphate is then converted into the coloured product p-nitrophenol. The signal intensity of this reaction product is proportional to the concentration of the analyte in the sample and is measured photometrically!!Background/Introduction: Besides the Dengue virus, the Yellow Fever virus and the TBE virus, the West Nile virus belongs to the human pathogenic species among the flaviviruses. Birds such as ravens and sparrows represent the natural reservoires for the arbovirus (arthropode borne virus). Mosquitos of the genus Culex, Aedes and Ochlerotatus are the main vectors of the West Nile virus to humans. ELISA test systems are especially suited for the differential analysis of immunoglobulin classes directed against the virus.

Product Notes
The Human IgM (Catalog #AAA495364) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA495364 ELISA Kit recognizes Human IgM. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "West Nile Virus IgM, 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
