Amyloid-Beta 1-42 (FL) ELISA Kit (Human Specificity, 96T)  

Sensitive and selective colorimetric sandwich ELISA kit to ABeta (1-42) with assay range 1.56-100 pg/ml.  Highly selective to amyloid-beta 1-42 with minimal cross reactivity to amyloid-beta 1-40 (see data below).  The affinity purified monoclonal capture antibody is selective to the C-terminus at amino acid residue 42 and the affinity purified monoclonall-HRP detection antibody is selective to the N-terminus of Abeta1-42:  Due to the positioning of both antibodies, this ELISA kit detects full legnth (FL) Abeta1-42
 
Related ELISA kits to Abeta 1-40 are also available.

Lead time estimate:  2 weeks

Specifications:
  1. Complete ELISA kit in sandwich format.  Colorimetric detection at 450 nm.
  2. ELISA plate is coated with an affinity purified monoclonal antibody that recognizes  amyloid-beta 1-42 at the C-terminus:  The detection antibody is also a monoclonal and recognizes an epitope on the N-terminus.  This ELISA kit is therefore selective to full-length (FL) Abeta1-42..
  3. The kit detects amyloid-beta 1-42 in EDTA-plasma, cerebrospinal fluids, and culture media.
  4. EIA buffer contains 1% BSA, 0.05% Tween 20 in PBS
  5. Incubation times:  Samples with plate;  overnight.  Detection antibody:  1 hr
  6. Assay range:  1.56 - 100 pg/ml

Background on Amyloid-Beta (1-42)

Amyloid-beta (Abeta) is generated through amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleavage by secretases.  Beta-secretase cleaves an extracellular portion of APP and frees a soluble portion. Gamma-secretase cleaves APP within the transmembrane domain, creating amyloid-beta (Aβ) isoforms with lengths between 36-43 amino acid residues.  The prevailing isoforms of Amyloid-Beta are Aβ40 and Aβ42.  Aβ40 is the most widespread amyloid-Beta (Aβ) isoform, while Aβ42 is more fibrillogenic and is the principal Abeta peptide associated with Alzheimer’s disease.  This ELISA kit is highly selective to full length amyloid-beta 1-42 with insignificant reactivity to amyloid-beta 1-40 (see data table below).



Methods Overview
