Kynurenic acid (KYNA or KYN) is a product of L-tryptophan metabolism. Kynurenic acid (KYNA) has neuroactive activity by operating as an antagonist to excitatory amino acid receptors.  Therefore, elevated Kynurenic acid (KYNA) concentration could modulate neurological abnormalities.  Some studies have indicated it has altered concentrations in CSF of Alzheimer's patients, and could potentially serve as a biomarker and/or modulator of the disease.  
Methods Overview:
The included ELISA micro-strip plate is provided pre-coated with an a monoclonal capture antibody selective to the antigen.  Samples are pre-mixed with a biotin-linked detection antibody and streptavidin-HRP, which are then added to the plate.  The plate is washed after a 60 min incubation period.  Color reagents are added, resulting in a reaction with HRP that yields a blue colored solution.  A stop solution is applied to terminate the reaction, and the solution is measured at 450nm.
