The principle of the following enzyme immunoassay test follows a typical one-step capture or ‘sandwich’ type assay. The assay makes use of two highly specific monoclonal antibodies: A monoclonal antibody specific for ferritin is immobilized onto the microplate and another monoclonal antibody specific for a different region of ferritin is conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Ferritin from the sample and standards are allowed to bind simultaneously to the plate and to the HRP conjugate. The wash and decanting steps remove any unbound HRP conjugate. After the wash step, the enzyme substrate is added. The enzymatic reaction is terminated by addition of the stop solution. The absorbance is measured on a microplate reader. The intensity of the color formed by the enzymatic reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of ferritin in the sample. A set of standards is used to plot a standard curve from which the amount of ferritin in samples and controls can be directly read.
1. What percentage of your IgE allergy testing panel consists of molecular allergens rather than allergen extracts? The ALEX2 IgE allergen panel consists of 117 extracts and 183 molecular allergens. This represents the largest panel of molecular allergens on the market, including 50 unique...
Cases of food and environmental allergies have been increasing over the last decade. While conservative estimates suggest IgE-mediated allergy affects 6-8% of children and 2-3% of adults, some estimates are as high as 30%.3, 2 Symptoms can range from mild to severe and include itching, hives,...
Food sensitivity or food intolerance involves a non-allergic response to a food or food additive. In a recent on-line survey conducted in the U.S., 24% of adults aged 18 to 79 reported a food intolerance. While a food allergy is typically mediated by IgE antibodies, adverse reactions to food...
The ALPCO Glucagon ELISA is for the quantitative determination of glucagon in human EDTA plasma. This assay was developed for ease-of-use and demonstrates superior sensitivity while eliminating cross-reactivity issues present in other commercially-available assays.
ALPCO’s automated turbidimetric solution for calprotectin testing offers enhanced efficiency without compromising clinical sensitivity or specificity. Clinicians can prioritize endoscopic evaluation for the patients that need it most and quickly put IBS patients on the right treatment path.
