Product overview
Mouse Biglycan ELISA kit (ab275906) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Mouse Biglycan protein in mouse serum, plasma and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse Biglycan with 193 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 SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Notes
Biglycan is a proteoglycan found in the extracellular matrix and plays a key role in the maintenance of bone, cartilage, and tendons. Along with its structural role, biglycan plays a crucial role in inflammatory signaling during stress and tissue injury. It is currently under investigation as a potential target for clinical treatment of muscular dystrophies and certain inflammatory diseases such as osteoarthritis. The antibodies for this kit were raised against a recombinant protein representing the majority of the c-terminal portion of the mature protein. This protein is homologous throughout Mammalia, so cross-reactivities are likely for samples from many species.

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 concentrations of Biglycan were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the Biglycan standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Biglycan concentration was determined to be 5,464.65 pg/mL.
