Test Principle

This ELISA kit uses the Competitive-ELISA principle. The micro ELISA plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with β-EP. During the reaction, β-EP in the sample or standard competes with a fixed amount of β-EP on the solid phase supporter for sites on the Biotinylated Detection Ab specific to β-EP. Excess conjugate and unbound sample or standard are washed away, and Avidin-Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugate are added to each micro plate well and incubated. Then a TMB substrate solution is added to each well. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of stop solution and the color turns from blue to yellow. The optical density (OD) is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm ± 2 nm. The concentration of β-EP in tested samples can be calculated by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.

EDTA plasma(n=8) 87-102 93
Cell culture media(n=8) 84-97 91

Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human β-EP and diluted with Reference Standard & Sample Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

Asked: I am reaching out to inquire about the suitability of your ELISA kit for a specific scientific experiment involving the detection of endorphin and another endogenous opioid peptide in a non-standard rodent model. Uniprot alignment shows a 89% similarity between our research model and human endorphin sequence and 85 % alignment with mice. I believe your ELISA kit for human or mouse may be applicable for this purpose. However, I kindly request your assistance in providing information regarding the amino acids that act as epitopes for the antibodies in these kits. This information would allow me to compare the amino acid sequences and determine the most appropriate kit to order for my experiment. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your response.

Answered: Unfortunately, we have not yet identified the specific epitopes that the antibodies of endorphin ELISA Kits target. All our products undergo a series of performance tests on the sample during the development stage, including the measurement range test, recovery test, sensitivity test and precision test, etc., to ensure the detection performance of the kits on the samples from target species . For samples of other species, we suggest that the customer can order a small-size kit for pre-testing to confirm whether it can be used for customer's sample.
