Human N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide CLIA Kit

Description

​​​​​​​
Human N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide CLIA Kit is a Chemiluminescence Immunoassay (CLIA) intended for the quantitative measurement of human N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide concentration in serum.

Background


The Human N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide CLIA Kit is designed, developed, and produced for the quantitative measurement of human NT-PROBNP level in serum samples. The assay utilizes a two-site “sandwich” technique with two antibodies that bind to different epitopes of NT-PROBNP.
Assay calibrators, controls, or patient serum samples are added directly to a reaction vessel together with streptavidin coated magnetic particles and biotinylated anti-NT-PROBNP polyclonal antibody. The magnetic particles capture the biotin antibody as well as an immuno complex in the form of “magnetic particles–biotin NT-PROBNP antibody–NT-PROBNP–acridinium ester NT-PROBNP antibody”. Materials bound to the solid beads are held in a magnetic field while unbound materials are washed away. Then, trigger solutions are added to the reaction vessel and light emission is measured with the ECL100 analyzer. The relative light units (RLU) are proportional to the concentration of a NT-PROBNP in the sample. The amount of analyte in the sample is determined from a stored, multi-point calibration curve and reported in serum NT-PROBNP concentration.
