Samples are pipetted into wells of a microplate coated with antibodies directed against Hepatitis A Virus (HAV). The HAV antigen binds to the fixed antibody and after the incubation period of two hours at 37°C the plate is washed thoroughly. Bound HAV antigen is identified with conjugate addition (monoclonal anti-HAV, peroxidase conjugated), incubated for another two hours at 37°C. Excess conjugate is removed by washing and the substrate is added. After 30 minutes incubation at room temperature the reaction is terminated by addition of stop solution. The blue color of a positive reaction turns to yellow and is measured in a microplate reader at 450 nm. The intensity of the color indicates the concentration of bound HAV antigen. A positive reaction must be confirmed by re-testing with anti-HAV neutralizing serum to discriminate false positive reactions which sometimes occur in stool.
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.
Join our speaker from Department of Pathology , University of Utah School of Medicine, Dr. Heather Nelson, to discuss how to validate and launch a FDA-approved assay.
