Description

ELISA

The Human Adrenomedullin (ADM) ELISA quantitates Adrenomedullin in serum, plasma, and other biological fluids The Human Adrenomedullin solid-phase sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is designed to measure the amount of the target bound between a matched antibody pair. A target-specific antibody has been pre-coated in the wells of the supplied microplate. Samples are then added into these wells and bind to the immobilized (capture) antibody. The sandwich is formed by the binding of the second (detector) antibody to the target on a different epitope from the capture antibody. An antibody conjugated with enzyme binds the formed sandwich. After incubation and washing steps to rid the microplate of unbound substances, a substrate solution is added that reacts with the enzyme-antibody-target complex to produce measurable signal. The intensity of this signal is directly proportional to the concentration of target present in the original specimen. Rigorous validation: Each manufactured lot of this ELISA kit is quality tested for criteria such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, and lot-to-lot consistency. See manual for more information on validation.

Adrenomedullin (ADM), a vasodilator produced by most contractile cells, is characterized by persistent hypotensive activity. ADM is involved in the regulation of fluid and electrolyte homeostasis and in the maintenance of cardiovascular functioning. In hypertensive patients, the level of ADM in plasma is upregulated. Natriuresis is a common systemic manifestation of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. ADM has strong natriuretic actions. ADM-induced natriuresis is caused by an increase in glomerular filtration rate and a decrease in distal tubular sodium reabsorption. ADM is present both in the periphery and brain, and can exert central effects such as decreasing food ingestion.
