Protein A ELISA Kit

Product details

Abcam's Protein A in vitro ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for the accurate quantitative measurement of natural and recombinant Protein A in neutralized buffers.

A chicken IgY antibody specific to Protein A has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards or test samples are added to the wells, incubated and then washed. A Protein A polyclonal antibody is then added, incubated and washed. An HRP conjugated antibody is then added incubated. The plate is washed once more and the TMB substrate is then added which HRP catalyzes, generating a blue coloration after incubation. A stop solution is added which generates conversion to yellow color read at 450 nm which is proportional to the amount of analyte bound

Staphylococcus aureus Protein A is a 42 kDa cell wall constituent that is characterized by its binding affinity to the Fc portion of some immunoglobulins, especially the IgG class. The IgG binding domain (domain B) consists of three anti-parallel alpha-helices, the third of which is disrupted when the protein is complexed with Fc. Protein A is commonly used to purify antisera and in commonly used immunodetection and visualization techniques. Protein A participates in a number of protective biological functions including anti-tumor, toxic and carcinogenic activities, thus necessitating the removal of potential Protein A contaminants from antibody preparations for therapeutic use.
