  • Product overview

    Human SOD2 (Superoxide Dismutase 2) ELISA kit (ab178012) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of SOD2 protein in human cell and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate human SOD2 with 220 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

    The principle cellular anti-oxidant enzymes are the superoxide dismutase family (SOD, E.C. 1.15.1.1). These enzymes dismutate superoxide into hydrogen peroxide which is further detoxified by other cellular defenses such as glutathione peroxidase and catalase. Superoxide and its products have been implicated in a wide range of diseases including cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes and aging. The SOD family has 3 members, two of which are Cu-Zn type – the extracellular SOD3 and the cytoplasmic SOD1. The other member is the mitochondrial Mn (manganese) type SOD2. The mitochondrial Mn-SOD2 is a homotetramer of subunit mass 23 kDa in the mitochondrial matrix. SOD2 has been shown to be essential since knockout mice die shortly after birth. SOD2 levels may be downregulated in tumor cells and studies show that over expression of SOD2 in tumor cells may suppress cell division and cancer growth (Oberley, Biomedecine & Pharmacotherapy, 2005, 59, p143-8).

    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.
