Mouse Fas Ligand ELISA Kit (FasL)

Product details

Mouse Fas Ligand ELISA kit (ab270894) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Fas Ligand protein in mouse serum, plasma and cell culture supernatant. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate mouse Fas Ligand with 5.7 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.

Fas Ligand (FasL), also known as Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 6 or CD95 ligand is a cytokine that binds to TNFRSF6/FAS/CD95, a receptor that transduces the apoptotic signal into cells. Fas Ligand is involved in cytotoxic T-cell-mediated apoptosis, natural killer cell-mediated apoptosis and in T-cell development. It also initiates fratricidal/suicidal activation-induced cell death (AICD) in antigen-activated T-cells contributing to the termination of immune responses. TNFRSF6/FAS-mediated apoptosis has also a role in the induction of peripheral tolerance. Rat Fas Ligand has 93% amino acids sequence identity with mouse Fas Ligand.
