This Mouse and Rat PYY ELISA kit is used for the quantitative determination of mouse or rat PYY in serum or edta plasma samples. There are many advantages to performing the Mouse and Rat PYY ELISA, including sensitive quantification, high specificity, no influence from other plasma components, and the needlessness of sample pretreatment. The PYY standard is a highly purified synthetic product (purity: higher than 98). The Mouse and Rat PYY ELISA kit shows 10 cross reactivity to human PYY and less than 0.01 cross reactivity to human and rat NPY, which has a similar amino acid sequence to rat PYY. Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.
This enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kit is a stable and convenient assay system for peptide YY (PYY).
PYY was isolated initially by Tatemoto et al. (1980) from the extract of pig duodenum and shown to be a polypeptide consisting of 36 amino acid residues. PYY is homologous to pancreatic polypeptide (PP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY). PYY is localized mainly in endocrine cells in the intestine (ileum, colon, and rectum) showing an inhibitory action on contraction of the gastrointestinal tract and on
secretion of pancreatic and gastric juice. PYY is released by ingesting food. The PYY level decreases
after resection of the intestine possibly are due to the decrease in the number of the endocrine cells
secreting PYY. The EIA kit is prepared by using synthetic mouse/rat PYY (3-36) as standard antigen
and biotinylated mouse/rat PYY (3-36) as labeled antigen. The kit contains specific polyclonal
antibody recognized to the amino acid sequence of Mouse/rat PYY.
