Product overview
Human IGFBP3 Matched Antibody Pair Kits include a capture and a biotinylated detector antibody pair, along with a calibrated protein standard, suitable for sandwich ELISA. The Matched Antibody Pair Kit can be used to quantify native and recombinant mouse IGFBP3.
Optimization of the kit reagents to sample type, immunoassay format or instrumentation may be required. Guidelines for use of this kit in a standard 96-well microplate sandwich ELISA using HRP/TMB system of colorimetric detection is described in this assay procedure for the purposes of quantification.
Protocol information and tips on the use of the Matched Antibody Pair kits for sandwich ELISA can be found on our website. An accessory pack can be purchased which includes buffer reagents required to perform 10 x 96-well plate sandwich ELISAs (ab210905).
For additional information on the performance of the antibody pair used in this kit, please see our equivalent SimpleStep ELISA kit ab211652. Please note that while the antibody pair is the same provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits.

Function
IGF-binding proteins prolong the half-life of the IGFs and have been shown to either inhibit or stimulate the growth promoting effects of the IGFs on cell culture. They alter the interaction of IGFs with their cell surface receptors. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed by most tissues. Present in plasma. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 1 IGFBP N-terminal domain.
Contains 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain. -
Developmental stage
IGFBP3 levels are higher during extrauterine life and peak during puberty. -
Domain
The thyroglobulin type-1 domain mediates interaction with HN. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylation sites are present in the extracelllular medium. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt
