The assay is based on polyclonal antibodies and recombinant GHBP, expressed in eukaryotic cells.The ELISA for GHBP is a so-called Sandwich-Assay. It utilizes two specific antibodies of high affinity. First, the GHBP in the sample binds to the immobilized antibody on the microtiter plate. In a two-step sequence, the biotin-conjugated anti-GHBP-Antibody and the streptavidin-peroxidase are bound. Subsequently, the peroxidase catalyzes an enzymatic reaction resulting in a blue coloration. The intensity of the blue color depends on the GHBP content of the sample. The reaction is stopped by the addition of stop solution and color intensity is quantified by measuring the absorption. The GHBP ELISA allows secure and reproducible measurement of GHBP in human body fluids and is a suitable tool for the investigation of GHBP as biomarker in energy and fat metabolism.
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...
In a head-to-head comparison of FDA-cleared assays and a novel ALPCO method, investigators observed wide variability in specificity and false-positive rates across platforms, raising important questions about standardization and clinical interpretation.
