製品の概要
Human Procalcitonin ELISA Kit (ab221828) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Procalcitonin protein in cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, milk, saliva, serum, and urine. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human Procalcitonin with 1.51 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

特記事項
Human Procalcitonin is a 116-amino acid precursor protein of the peptide hormone called Calcitonin coded by the gene CALCA. Procalcitonin is mainly produced by the C-cells of the thyroid and certain endocrine cells of the lung. Under normal expression conditions, Procalcitonin is cleaved into three specific fragments: an N-terminal residue, Calcitonin, and Katacalcin. Levels of unprocessed Procalcitonin have been shown to rise significantly after bacterial infection, trauma, and shock. Calcitonin regulates the blood phosphate and calcium levels by promoting incorporation into bones. Populations with chronic kidney disease have been shown to have higher procalcitonin levels. The antibodies used in this product were raised to the propeptide sequence residues 26-82. The standard protein in this product has been mass calibrated to a full-length procalcitonin (residues 26-141).

Procalcitonin (PCT) is a 116 amino acid residue peptide with molecular weight of about 13 kDa. PCT itself has no known hormonal activity. PCT belongs to a group of related proteins including calcitonin gene-related peptides I and II, amylin, adrenomodulin and calcitonin (CAPA peptide family). PCT, like other peptides of CAPA family, appears from the common precursor pre-procalcitonin consisting of 141 amino acids by removal of 25 amino acids from the N-terminus. PCT undergoes successive cleavages to form three molecules: N-terminal fragment (55 a.a.), calcitonin (32 a.a.) and katacalcin (21 a.a.). Under normal metabolic conditions, PCT is only present in the C cells of the thyroid gland. In bacterial infection and sepsis, however, intact PCT is found in the blood and, more importantly, its level is related to the severity of bacterial sepsis. Today, PCT is considered to be one of the earliest and most specific markers of sepsis. -

The concentrations of Procalcitonin were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Procalcitonin standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 50%, plasma (citrate) 50%, plasma (EDTA) 50%, and plasma (heparin) 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Procalcitonin concentration was determined to be 335 pg/mL in neat serum, 351 pg/mL in neat plasma (citrate), 424 pg/mL in neat plasma (EDTA) and 405 pg/mL in neat plasma (heparin).

Undiluted samples are as follows: urine 25%, milk 50%, and saliva 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Procalcitonin concentration was determined to be 1,555 pg/mL in neat urine, 154 pg/mL in neat milk, and 338 pg/mL in neat saliva.
