Application Details

Application Notes: Before using Kit, spin tubes and bring down all components to bottom of tube. Duplicate well assay was recommended for both standard and sample testing.

Plate: Pre-coated

Protocol: mouse Prolactin ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for Prolactin has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(E.coli, L32-C228) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Prolactin is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the mouse Prolactin amount of sample captured in plate.

Assay Procedure:

Aliquot 0.1 mL per well of the 10000pg/mL, 5000pg/mL, 2500pg/mL, 1250pg/mL, 625pg/mL, 312pg/mL, 156pg/mL mouse Prolactin standard solutions into the precoated 96-well plate. Add 0.1 mL of the sample diluent buffer into the control well (Zero well). Add 0.1 mL of each properly diluted sample of mouse cell culture supernates, serum or plasma(heparin, citrate) to each empty well. See "Sample Dilution Guideline" above for details. It is recommended that each mouse Prolactin standard solution and each sample be measured in duplicate.

Target Details for Prolactin

Target: Prolactin (PRL)

Alternative Name: PRL

Background:

Protein Function: Prolactin acts primarily on the mammary gland by promoting lactation.

Background: Prolactin, also calle PRL, is a protein that in humans is encodes by the PRL gene. This gene is mapped to 6p22.3. This gene encodes the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin. It may play a role in cell survival by suppressing apoptosis, and it is essential for lactation. Prolactin also acts in a cytokine-like manner and as an important regulator of the immune system. Prolactin has important cell cycle related functions as a growth-, differentiating- and anti-apoptotic factor. As a growth factor binding to cytokine like receptors it has also profound influence on hematopoiesis, angiogenesis and is involved in the regulation of blood clotting through several pathways.
