AffiELISA® Mouse CART Kit: Super-Sensitive Cocaine And Amphetamine Regulated Transcript ELISA Detection

The AffiELISA® Mouse CART Kit uses Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The provided microtiter plate comes pre-coated with an antibody specific to Cocaine And Amphetamine Regulated Transcript (CART) . To perform the assay, standards or samples are added to designated wells on the microtiter plate. Subsequently, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Cocaine And Amphetamine Regulated Transcript (CART) is introduced. Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is then added to each well, followed by an incubation period. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Cocaine And Amphetamine Regulated Transcript (CART) , biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. By comparing the optical density (OD) of the samples to the standard curve, the concentration of Cocaine And Amphetamine Regulated Transcript (CART) in the samples can be determined.
