KE00234 is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The CD138 ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous CD138. The assay recognizes human CD138. An antibody specific for CD138 has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The CD138 protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated antibody specific for CD138 is added to detect the captured CD138 protein. For signal development, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450 nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm .
