Principiul testului

Sheep Cortisol ELISA Kit (A327162) employs a rapid competitive Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) technique for the quantitative measurement of sheep Cortisol in serum and plasma. Antigen specific for Cortisol has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microtiter plate. Standards and test samples are added to the wells together with HRP-conjugated detection reagent working solution. During incubation, Cortisol present in the sample competes with the immobilized antigen for binding to the HRP-conjugated detection reagent. Following incubation, unbound components are removed by washing. TMB substrate solution is then added to visualize the HRP enzymatic reaction, producing a blue-coloured product that changes to yellow following addition of acidic stop solution. The intensity of the yellow colour is inversely proportional to the concentration of Cortisol present in the sample. The concentration of Cortisol is determined by measuring the O.D. absorbance at 450 nm using a microplate reader and comparing the values to the standard curve.
