Serotonin ELISA Kit

製品の詳細

Serotonin ELISA Kit ab133053 is a competitive ELISA to measure Serotonin (5 hydroxytryptamine) in Urine, Plasma, Serum, Platelets with a sensitivity of 0.293 ng/mL.

How the assay works
A goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards or test samples are added to the wells, along with an alkaline phosphatase (AP) conjugated- Serotonin antigen and a polyclonal rabbit antibody specific to Serotonin. After incubation the excess reagents are washed away. pNpp substrate is added and after a short incubation the enzyme reaction is stopped and the yellow color generated is read at 405 nm. The intensity of the yellow coloration is inversely proportional to the amount of Serotonin captured in the plate.

Assay specificity
Cross reactivity:
- N-Acetyl Serotonin : 17%
- 5-Hydroxy-L-tryptophan: 0.4%
- Tryptamine: 0.1%
- 5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid: 0.03%
- Melatonin: 0.01%
- Tyramine: <0.004%
- Tryptophan: <0.004%

Serotonin ELISA kit ab133053 is commonly used to study behavioral and neurodegenerative disoders. Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a monoamine found in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood with broad physiological functions as a neurotransmitter, in gastric motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Defects in serotonin signaling have been linked to a large number of complex behavioral disorders in humans, including anxiety and depression, autism, and eating disorders, and to neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's. Platelets serve as the major reservoir of serotonin in the bloodstream. When activated, platelets release serotonin into the bloodstream where it acts as a powerful vasoconstrictor. Treatment with Selective Serotonin Uptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) dramatically reduces platelet serotonin concentrations, and altered levels of serotonin in the circulatory system are implicated in such diverse conditions such as asthma, liver cirrhosis and carcinoid tumors.
