The MDA oxLDL ELISA kit is a 4 hour, 96-well sandwich ELISA for the quantitative determination of MDA-oxLDL adducts in human serum and plasma (EDTA, heparın, citrate) samples. The oxldl assay employs human serum-based standards to ensure the measurement of biologically reliable data.
Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs) play an important role in the progression of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the main carrier of plasma cholesterol, consists of a hydrophobic core and a surface monolayer of polar lipids and Apolipoprotein-B (ApoB). Oxidative stress and the consequent formation of free radicals lead to the peroxidation of ApoB. Malondialdehyde (MDA) has been identified as one of the major lipid peroxidation products of LDL, thus playing an important role in the LDL oxidation.
The Biomedica MDA oxLDL ELISA specifically detects MDA-modified ApoB in human serum and plasma. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
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...
