Product Description
Rat Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein A (SP-A) ELISA Kit | KTE100267 | Abbkine
Application: This Rat Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein A (SP-A) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SFTPA1 in samples. An antibody specific for SFTPA1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySFTPA1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SFTPA1 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SFTPA1 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Detection Method: Colorimetric
Conjugate: N/A
Sample Type: Cell culture supernatants#Serum#Plasma#Other biological fluids
Assay Type: Multiple steps standard sandwich ELISA assay with a working time of 3-5 hours. It depends on the experience of the operation person.

Usage Note: • Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.
• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Storage Instruction: The unopened kit should be stored at 2 - 8°C. After opening, please store refer to protocols.
Shipping: Gel pack with blue ice.

Background: SP-A (PRL) is a peptide hormone primarily associated with lactation. In breastfeeding, the infant suckling the teat stimulates the production of SP-A, which fills the breast with milk (lactogenesis) in preparation for the next feed. Oxytocin, a similar hormone, is also released, which triggers milk let-down. SP-A (PRL) is a polypeptide hormone secreted by anterior pituitary of both male and female. Release of SP-A is controlled by a complex neuroendocrine reflex initiated by a tactile stimulus and regulated by hypothalamic releasing and inhibition. Genetic variations in SFTPA1 are associated with respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants (RDS) ; also known as RDS in prematurity. RDS in the newborn is the main cause of mortality and morbidity in premature infants.
