INTENDED USE This ST2 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Monkey ST2. This ELISA kit for research use only!
PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY ST2 ELISA kit applies the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate has been pre-coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for ST2. Standards or samples are then added to the microtiter plate wells and ST2 if present, will bind to the antibody pre-coated wells. In order to quantitatively determine the amount of ST2 present in the sample, a standardized preparation of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated polyclonal antibody, specific for ST2 are added to each well to “sandwich” the ST2 immobilized on the plate. The microtiter plate undergoes incubation, and then the wells are thoroughly washed to remove all unbound components. Next, substrate solutions are added to each well. The enzyme (HRP) and substrate are allowed to react over a short incubation period. Only those wells that contain ST2 and enzyme-conjugated antibody will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The ST2 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Most MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The enzyme encoded by this gene degrades proteoglycans and fibronectin. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes
The Monkey ST2 mmp10 (Catalog #AAA737754) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA737754 ELISA Kit recognizes Monkey ST2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Stromelysin-2, 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
