DatasheetMSDSProtocol
The L-Kynurenine ELISA is an easy-to-use assay tailored for the quantification of Kynurenine across large series of samples. Optimized for the analysis of biological fluids (plasma, cell culture supernatant, serum…), the KYN ELISA features a lower limit of detection at 45.7ng/ml and a minimal sample volume of 20µl, thus allowing longitudinal studies in mice.
| Sample type | Plasma, serum, cell culture supernatant |
| Capacity | 96 tests |
| Sensitivity | < 45.7ng/ml |
| Range | 100 – 10000ng/ml |
| Assay time | Sample acylation 90 min, ELISA overnight |
| Reactivity | Reacts with all species |
