Human Anti-Cytomegalovirus IgG ELISA Kit (CMV) is an indirect ELISA kit for the qualitative detection of human IgG antibodies against CMV with a 98% sensitivity.
How the assay works
Human Anti-Cytomegalovirus IgG ELISA Kit (CMV)ab108724 is an indirect ELISA kit.
A 96-well plate has been precoated with Cytomegalovirus antigens to bind cognate antibodies. Controls or test samples are added to the wells and incubated. Following washing, a horseradish peroxidase (HRP) labelled anti-Human IgG conjugate is added to the wells, which binds to the immobilized Cytomegalovirus-specific antibodies. TMB is then catalyzed by the HRP to produce a blue color product that changes to yellow after adding an acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is directly proportional to the amount of Cytomegalovirus IgG sample captured in plate.
Assay specificity
Our ELISA kits are rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility.
