* 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.
Background: Ergocalciferol is a provitamin form of vitamin D, also called vitamin D2. Ergocalciferol is created when ultraviolet light activates ergosterol. Ergocalciferol is produced in fungi synthetically through irradiation of ergosterol. Human bioavailability of vitamin D2 from vitamin D2-enhanced button mushrooms via UV-B irradiation is effective in improving vitamin D status and not different from a vitamin D2 supplement. Vitamin D2 from UV-irradiated yeast baked into bread is bioavailable. By visual assessment or using a chromometer, no significant discoloration of irradiated mushrooms, as measured by the degree of "whiteness", was observed. One study found low vitamin D2 levels in patients with Alzheimer's disease, but this observational study did not prove cause or effect related to ergocalciferol and vitamin D2 deficiency in the diet.

Product Notes
The Mouse VD2 (Catalog #AAA9716636) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9716636 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse VD2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Vitamin D2 (VD2), 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
