Notes

Mouse Cystatin C ELISA Kit (ab201280) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Cystatin C protein in cit plasma, serum, tissue extracts, urine, and cell culture supernatant. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse Cystatin C with 5.25 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 (Pre-coated 384 well Microplate SimpleStep ELISA® ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Cystatin C, which belongs to the type II cystatin gene family, is a potent inhibitor of lysosomal proteinases. It is expressed in many organs of the body, and is an important extracellular inhibitor of cysteine proteases. As an inhibitor of cysteine proteinases, Cystatin C is thought to serve an important physiological role as a local regulator of this enzyme activity.
