Amyloid-Beta N3pE-42 ELISA Kit (Human Specificity)  

Sensitive and selective colorimetric ELISA kit to ABeta N3pE-42 with assay range 7.75-496 pg/ml.  Highly selective to amyloid-beta N3pE-42 with minimal cross reactivity to unmodified amyloid-beta 1-40 and amyloid-beta 1-42 (see data below).  The affinity purified monoclonal antibody absorbed on the plate and the affinity purified polyclonal-HRP detection antibody were generated to ABeta N3pE-42.


Specifications:
  1. Complete ELISA kit in sandwich format.  Colorimetric detection at 450 nm.  96T
  2. ELISA plate is coated with an affinity purified monoclonal antibody that recognizes amyloid-beta N3pE-42.
  3. The kit detects amyloid-beta N3pE-42 in brain tissue extract.
  4. Incubation times:  Samples with plate;  overnight.  Detection antibody:  1 hr
  5. Assay range:  7.75- 496 pg/ml, 1.94 pg/ml sensitivity
  6. Related kit to amyloid-beta N3pE-40 is also available:  click here

Background on Amyloid-Beta N3pE-42

Amyloid-beta (Abeta) is generated through amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleavage by certain secretases.  Beta-secretase cleaves an extracellular portion of APP and frees a soluble peptide. Gamma-secretase cleaves APP within the transmembrane domain, creating amyloid-beta (Aβ) isoforms with lengths between 36-43 amino acid residues.  In N3pE amyloid beta isoforms, the 3rd glutmate residue is converted pyroglutamate.  N3pE-42 and N3pE-40 variants have been detected that appear to have a higher propensity toward aggregation than unmodified amyloid beta, which has been hypothesized to contribute to the Alzheimer's pathology.  This kits selectively detects the N3pE-42 amyloid beta variant, whereas a separate ELISA Kit (Part No. 27418) has been developed to detect the N3pE-40 variant. The affinity purified monoclonal antibody percolated on the ELISA plate and the affiniy purified polyclonal HRP conjugated detection antibody in this kit are selective to AβN3pE-42. The antibodies have been generated to the N-terminus of AβN3pE-42.

We now also carry a line of ELISA kits with targets that appear to be associated with infection and inflammatory responses that may be associated with dimentia diseases.  For example, alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor (α1-PI), C-reactive protein (CRP), and leukocyte elastase (LE).  To locate this group of ELISA kits, enter the target name in the search bar.
