The Human Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-4/CCL1 (Hu MCP-4) ELISA quantitates Hu MCP-4 in human serum, plasma, or cell culture medium. The assay will exclusively recognize both natural and recombinant Hu MCP-4.
Principle of the method
The Human MCP-4 solid-phase sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is designed to measure the amount of the target bound between a matched antibody pair. A target-specific antibody has been pre-coated in the wells of the supplied microplate. Samples, standards, or controls are then added into these wells and bind to the immobilized (capture) antibody. The sandwich is formed by the addition of the second (detector) antibody, a substrate solution is added that reacts with the enzyme-antibody-target complex to produce measurable signal. The intensity of this signal is directly proportional to the concentration of target present in the original specimen.
Rigorous validation
Each manufactured lot of this ELISA kit is quality tested for criteria such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, and lot-to-lot consistency. See manual for more information on validation.
Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 4 (MCP-4), also called CCL13, is induced by inflammatory proteins such as IL-1 and TNFalpha. MCP-4 is a ligand for three different G protein coupled receptors, CCR2, CCR3 and CCR5. MCP-4 activates signaling in monocytes, T lymphocytes, eosinophils and basophils and this signaling is associated with the allergic response.
