Mouse Erythropoietin ELISA Kit (EPO)

Mouse Erythropoietin ELISA kit (ab270893) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Erythropoietin protein in mouse serum, plasma and cell culture supernatant. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate mouse Erythropoietin with 2.4 pg/mL sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Erythropoietin is the principal hormone involved in the regulation of erythrocyte proliferation and differentiation and the maintenance of a physiological level of circulating erythrocyte mass. Erythropoietin binds to EPOR leading to EPOR dimerization and JAK2 activation thereby activating specific downstream effectors, including STAT1 and STAT3. Erythropoietin is a secreted protein produced by kidney or liver of adult mammals and by liver of fetal or neonatal mammals. Human erythropoietin is used for the treatment of anemia. Variations affecting the human EPO gene are associated with microvascular complications of diabetes 2. Mouse Erythropoietin has 94% amino acids sequence identity to rat Erythropoietin, and 80% identity to the human Erythropoietin.
