| DRGŪ Hepcidin ELISA (EIA-4705) |
 Principle of the test
The DRG Hepcidin ELISA Kit is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), based on the principle of competitive binding. The microtiter wells are coated with a monoclonal antibody directed towards the antigenic site of the bioactive Hepcidin 25 molecule. Endogenous Hepcidin of a patient sample competes with the added Hepcidin-biotin conjugate for binding to the coated antibody. After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. An incubation with a streptavidin-peroxidase enzyme complex and a second wash step follows. The addition of substrate solution results in a colour development which is stopped after a short incubation The intensity of colour developed is reverse proportional to the concentration of Hepcidin in the patient sample. |
