Sheep Insulin like Growth Factor1 ELISA Kit
INTENDED USE This IGF1 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Sheep IGF1. This ELISA kit for research use only!
PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY IGF1 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing amonoclonal anti-IGF1 antibody and an IGF1-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with IGF1-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the IGF1 concentration since IGF1 from samples and IGF1-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-IGF1 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by IGF1 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind IGF1-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The IGF1 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is similar to insulin in function and structure and is a member of a family of proteins involved in mediating growth and development. The encoded protein is processed from a precursor, bound by a specific receptor, and secreted. Defects in this gene are a cause of insulin-like growth factor I deficiency. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
Uniprot Description
IGF1: The insulin-like growth factors, isolated from plasma, are structurally and functionally related to insulin but have a much higher growth-promoting activity. May be a physiological regulator of [1-14C]-2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) transport and glycogen synthesis in osteoblasts. Stimulates glucose transport in rat bone-derived osteoblastic (PyMS) cells and is effective at much lower concentrations than insulin, not only regarding glycogen and DNA synthesis but also with regard to enhancing glucose uptake. Defects in IGF1 are the cause of insulin-like growth factor I deficiency (IGF1 deficiency). IGF1 deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by growth retardation, sensorineural deafness and mental retardation. Belongs to the insulin family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Sheep IGF1 igf1 (Catalog #AAA740216) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA740216 ELISA Kit recognizes Sheep IGF1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Insulin like Growth Factor1, 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
