Ultra-sensitive enzyme Immunoassay (ELISA) for the determination of Serotonin. Flexible test system for various biological types and volumes.<br><br>
Serotonin is acylated and detected by the subsequent competitive ELISA kit, which uses the microtiter plate format. Antigens are bound to the solid phase of the microtiter plate. The acylated standards, controls and samples and the solid phase bound analytes compete for a fixed number of antibody binding sites. After the system is in equilibrium, free antigen and free antigen-antibody complexes are removed by washing. The antibody bound to the solid phase is detected by an anti-rabbit IgG-peroxidase conjugate using TMB as a substrate. The reaction is monitored at 450nm.<br><br>
Determination of unknown samples is achieved by comparing their absorbance with a standard curve prepared with known standard concentrations. For research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedures.
