Human CA19-9(Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9) Microsample ELISA Kit

Human CA19-9(Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9) Microsample ELISA Kit is an ELK Biotechnology ELISA kit for research measurement of CA19-9.

Test principle

The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Human CA19-9. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Human CA19-9. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Human CA19-9, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of Human CA19-9 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.

Target background

Alternative names include sialylated Lewis(a)Antigen; Cancer Antigen 19-9.
