In this assay,
the clusterin present in samples reacts with the anti-clusterin antibodies which have been
adsorbed to the surface of polystyrene microtiter wells. After the removal of unbound proteins by
washing, anti-clusterin antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), are added.
These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound clusterin. Following
another washing step, the enzyme bound to the immunosorbent is assayed by the addition of a
chromogenic substrate, 3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The quantity of bound enzyme
varies directly with the concentration of clusterin in the sample tested; thus, the absorbance, at
450 nm, is a measure of the concentration of clusterin in the test sample. The quantity of clusterin
in the test sample can be interpolated from the standard curve constructed from the standards
and corrected for sample dilution.
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...
