Product overview
Human Myoglobin ELISA kit (ab171580) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Myoglobin protein in human serum, plasma, urine, cell culture supernatant, cell and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate human myoglobin with 270 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpeStep ELISA® kits. -
Notes
Myoglobin, a heme protein is found in both cardiac and skeletal muscle and functions as a reserve supply of oxygen by facilitating the movement of oxygen within muscles. Damage to either type of muscle following conditions such as trauma, ischemia, and diseases that cause myopathy, is associated with the release of myoglobin into serum. Specifically, following cardiac necrosis associated with myocardial infarction (MI), myoglobin is one of the first markers to rise above normal levels. Myoglobin levels increase measurably above baseline within 2-4 hours post-infarct, peaking at 9-12 hours, and returning to baseline within 24-36 hours.

SimpleStep ELISA technology allows the formation of the antibody-antigen complex in one single step, reducing assay time to 90 minutes. Add samples or standards and antibody mix to wells all at once, incubate, wash, and add your final substrate. See protocol for a detailed step-by-step guide.

The Myoglobin standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
-
The concentrations of Myoglobin were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Myoglobin standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 25%, plasma (heparin) 25%, plasma (citrate) 25%, plasma (EDTA) 25%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Myoglobin concentration was determined to be 15.8 ng/mL in serum, 15.6 ng/mL in plasma (citrate), 8.3 ng/mL in plasma (EDTA) and 3.4 ng/mL in plasma (heparin).
-
Interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). 5 of 10 donors were below the detectable dose. The mean Myoglobin concentration was determined to be 5.4 ng/mL with a range of ND – 9.8 ng/mL.
