Ultrasensitive Corticosterone ELISA is for the quantitative detection of Corticosterone in biological fluids. Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.
The Corticosterone Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) kit is a competitive
immunoassay for the quantitative determination of Corticosterone in biological fluids. The kit uses a polyclonal antibody to
Corticosterone to bind, in a competitive manner, Corticosterone in the standard or sample or
an alkaline phosphatase molecule which has Corticosterone covalently attached to it. After a
simultaneous incubation at room temperature the excess reagents are washed away and
substrate is added. After a short incubation time the enzyme reaction is stopped and the
yellow color generated is read on a microplate reader at 405nm. The intensity of the bound
yellow color is inversely proportional to the concentration of Corticosterone in either standards
or samples. The measured optical density is used to calculate the concentration of
Corticosterone.
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.
July 22, 2025 – Salem, NH – NuvinkaDx, a leading innovator in diagnostic solutions, today announced two significant product and regulatory milestones from its operating companies, GeneProof and ALPCO.
