Product overview
Human Obestatin ELISA Kit (ab264628) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Obestatin protein in edta plasma. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human Obestatin with 8 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 stripsA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Notes
Obestatin, is generated from the proteolytic cleavage of preproghrelin; its sequence corresponds to amino acids 76-98 of Appetite-regulating hormone [Precursor](Q9QYH7). This peptide has contrasting actions to Ghrelin (a different product of proteolytic cleavage of preproghrelin) in that it inhibits food intake and gastrointestinal motility but does not modify in vitro GH release from pituitary cells.

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 Obestatin 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 Obestatin were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Obestatin standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: plasma (EDTA) 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Obestatin concentration was determined to be 289 pg/mL in plasma (EDTA).
