• Samples: Serum, Plasma, Tissue Homogenate, Feces and Urine
• Assay Type: Sandwich
• Detection Range: 6.25 ng/ml - 200 ng/ml.
• Sensitivity: 1.0 ng/ml.
• Intended Uses: This Quantitative Sandwich ELISA kit is only for in vitro research use only, not for drug, household, therapeutic applications! It is intended to be determinated NGAL/LCN2 concentrations in Horse serum, plasma and other body fluids. Using Purified Horse NGAL/LCN2 antibody to coat Microelisa Stripplate wells to make solid-phase antibody, then add NGAL/LCN2 and NGAL/LCN2 antibody which has been labeled with HRP to wells, then the reactants become antibody-antigen-antibody-enzyme complex, after washing completely, add TMB substrate solution, TMB substrate becomes blue color under HRP enzyme-catalyzed, reaction is terminated by the addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm. The concentration of NGAL/LCN2 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
• Intra-assay Precision: Intra-assay CV (%) is less than 15%.
• Inter-assay Precision: Inter-assay CV (%) is less than 15%. [CV(%) = SD/mean ×100]
• Preparation and Storage: Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C

Uniprot Description

LCN2: Iron-trafficking protein involved in multiple processes such as apoptosis, innate immunity and renal development. Binds iron through association with 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,5- DHBA), a siderophore that shares structural similarities with bacterial enterobactin, and delivers or removes iron from the cell, depending on the context. Iron-bound form (holo-24p3) is internalized following binding to the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor, leading to release of iron and subsequent increase of intracellular iron concentration. In contrast, association of the iron-free form (apo-24p3) with the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor is followed by association with an intracellular siderophore, iron chelation and iron transfer to the extracellular medium, thereby reducing intracellular iron concentration. Involved in apoptosis due to interleukin-3 (IL3) deprivation: iron-loaded form increases intracellular iron concentration without promoting apoptosis, while iron-free form decreases intracellular iron levels, inducing expression of the proapoptotic protein BCL2L11/BIM, resulting in apoptosis. Involved in innate immunity, possibly by sequestrating iron, leading to limit bacterial growth. Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
