Cardiolipin (CL) BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit (Human)

Cardiolipin (CL) BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit (Human) is a competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique for the in vitro quantitative measurement of CL in human tissue homogenates and other biological fluids.\n\nCardiolipin is an important component of the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it constitutes about 20% of the total lipid composition. The name пїЅcardiolipinпїЅ is derived from the fact that it was first found in animal hearts. It was first isolated from beef heart in the early 1940s. In mammalian cells, cardiolipin (CL) is found almost exclusively in the inner mitochondrial membrane where it is essential for the optimal function of numerous enzymes that are involved in mitochondrial energy metabolism.\nCardiolipin is a kind of diphosphatidylglycerol lipid. Two phosphatidylglycerols connect with a glycerol backbone in the center to form a dimmeric structure. So it has four alkyl groups and potentially carries two negative charges. As there are four distinct alkyl chains in cardiolipin, the potential for complexity of this molecule species is enormous.\n\nDetection Range:\n12.35-1000ng/ml\n\nSensitivity:\n(same/less than)4.65ng/ml\n\nIntra-Assay: \nCV<10%\n\nInter-Assay: \nCV<12%\n\nKit Components:\n*023934A: Microtiter Plate, 1x96 wells, Pre-coated; ready to use\n*023934B: Standard, 2x1vial \n023934C: Standard Diluent, 1x20ml\n*023934D: Detection Reagent A, 1x120ul \n*023934E: Detection Reagent B, 1x120ul \n023934F: Assay Diluent A, 2x, 1x6ml\n023934G: Assay Diluent B, 2x, 1x6ml\n023934H: TMB Substrate, 1x9ml\n023934K: Stop Solution, 1x6ml\n023934L: Wash Buffer, 30X, 1x20ml \n\nPrecaution:\nThe Stop Solution (023934K) suggested for use with this kit is an acid solution.
