Product Description
Human Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) ELISA Kit | KTE60092 | Abbkine
Application: This Human Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate UCP2 in samples. An antibody specific for UCP2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyUCP2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for UCP2 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 UCP2 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: UCPs facilitate the transfer of anions from the inner to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the return transfer of protons from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane. They also reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential in mammalian cells. Tissue specificity occurs for the different UCPs and the exact methods of how UCPs transfer H /OH- are not known. UCPs contain the three homologous protein domains of MACPs. Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2 is expressed in many tissues, with the greatest expression in skeletal muscle. Although it was originally thought to play a role in nonshivering thermogenesis, obesity and diabetes, it now appears that the main function of UCP2 is the control of mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species . Chromosomal order is 5'-UCP3-UCP2-3'.
