KRIBIOLISA™ Tocilizumab (ACTEMRA) ELISA

0 - 640ng/ml

Colorimetric, 450nm

Enzyme Immunoassay for the quantitative determination of Eculizumab in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatant. Eculizumab, sold under the trade name Soliris, is a medication used to treat paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). It is a humanized monoclonal antibody functioning as a terminal complement inhibitor. In people with PNH, it reduces both the destruction of red blood cells and need for blood transfusion, but does not appear to affect the risk of death. Eculizumab was the first drug approved for each of its uses, and its approval was granted on the basis of small clinical trials. Krishgen PK kits, developed using the innovator drug as calibrator, are used for the quantitation of serum protein drug levels, and can be used for biosimilar and generics research as well. About the kit: - Uses anti-idiotypic antibodies sourced from our vendor partner in the US, which ensures higher specificity, and low cross reactivity. - Recovery rates are between 85 - 115% - Ready to use with a standard protocol with break-apart pre-coated wells - Validated as per US FDA guidelines for Bioassays - Optimized for matrix effects to ensure higher sensitivity. - Shelf life: 1 year The method employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibodies to Eculizumab are pre-coated onto microwells. Samples and standards are pipetted into microwells and human Eculizumab present in the sample are bound by the capture antibody. Then, a HRP (horseradish peroxidase) conjugated anti-Eculizumab antibody is pipetted and incubated. After washing microwells in order to remove any non-specific binding, the ready to use substrate solution (TMB) is added to microwells and color develops proportionally to the amount of Eculizumab in the sample. Color development is then stopped by addition of stop solution. Absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
