Features:
AlphaLISA technology allows the detection of molecules of interest in buffer, cell culture media, serum and plasma in a highly sensitive, quantitative, reproducible and user-friendly mode. In an AlphaLISA assay, a Biotinylated Anti-Analyte Antibody binds to the Streptavidin-coated Alpha Donor beads, while another Anti-Analyte Antibody is conjugated to AlphaLISA Acceptor beads. In the presence of the analyte, the beads come into close proximity. The excitation of the Donor beads provokes the release of singlet oxygen molecules that triggers a cascade of energy transfer in the Acceptor beads, resulting in a sharp peak of light emission at 615 nm.
Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is a major protein component of Low, Very low, and Intermediate Density Lipoproteins. Although the exact function of ApoB remains unclear it is apparent that ApoB plays a major role in organization and formation of these lipoprotein complexes. ApoB is currently used as a biomarker to predict cardiovascular diseases, where higher levels have been associated with an increased risk. This AlphaLISA detection kit allows for the detection of ApoB levels in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants.
