This Mouse Cluster of Differentation 14 (CD14) ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of mouse CD14 in cell culture supernates, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This mouse CD14 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for CD14 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, A18-P345) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for CD14 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the mouse CD14 amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from rat, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: CD14, Cluster of differentiation 14, ingle-copy gene encoding 2 protein forms: a 50- to 55-kD glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored membrane protein(mCD14) and a monocyte or liver-derived soluble serum protein(sCD14) that lacks the anchor. By in situ hybridization and study of somatic cell hybrid DNA that the gene is located at bands 5q23-q31. CD14 acts as a co-receptor(along with the Toll-like receptor TLR 4 and MD-2) for the detection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide(LPS). CD14 can bind LPS only in the presence of lipopolysaccharide-binding protein(LBP). Although LPS is considered its main ligand, CD14 also recognizes other pathogen-associated molecular patterns.; Immunogen sequence: 369
