Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) (IgM) BioAssay™ ELISA Kit (Human)

Sample Type:|Serum||Intended Use:|For the qualitative determination of human mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) antibody (IgM) concentrations in serum.||Specificity:|This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of human mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) antibody (IgM). No significant cross-reactivity or interference between human mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) antibody (IgM) and analogues was observed.||Test Principle:|This BioAssay™ employs the qualitative enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with antigen. Samples are pipetted into the wells with anti-human IgM conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP). Any antibodies specific for the antigen present will bind to the pre-coated antigen. Following a wash to remove any unbound reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of human mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) antibody (IgM) bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.||Kit Components:|Coated assay plate, 1x96 wells|Negative Control, 1x0.8ml|Positive Control, 1x0.8ml|Sample Diluent, 1x20ml|HRP-conjugate, 1x10ml|Wash Buffer (25X), 1x20ml|Substrate A, 1x5ml|Substrate B, 1x5ml|Stop Solution, 1x5ml|Adhesive Strip (For 96 wells), 4x strips|Instruction manual||Storage and Stability:|Store powder at 4°C liquid at -20°C.
