Principle of the Assay: The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to target antigen. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific for target antigen and then avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. Then a TMB substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain target antigen, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm +/- 2 nm. The concentration of target antigen in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the somatostatin family of multifunctional peptides attributed with neurohormone, neurotransmitter/modulator and autocrine/paracrine actions. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature functional peptide that can bind to somatostatin receptors. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit elevated levels of growth hormone in the plasma without major changes in somatic growth and have exacerbated nociceptive responses to neuropathic and inflammatory pain sensitization. Transgenic mice overexpressing the encoded protein in neurons do not express long-term potentiation in the dentate gyrus and exhibit deficits in synaptic plasticity and learning.

Product Notes
The Mouse CORT cort (Catalog #AAA2890490) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2890490 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse CORT. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CORT/Cortistatin, 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
