Product overview
Mouse FLT3 Ligand ELISA kit (ab275551) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Mouse FLT3 Ligand protein in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatant. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse FLT3 Ligand with 3.9 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
Flt-3 ligand is an alpha-helical cytokine that promotes the differentiation of multiple hematopoietic cell lineages. Mature human Flt-3 ligand consists of a 158 amino acid extracellular domain with a cytokine-like domain and a juxtamembrane tether region, a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 30 aa cytoplasmic tail. Flt-3 ligand is expressed as a noncovalently-linked dimer by T cells and bone marrow and thymic fibroblasts. Both transmembrane and soluble Flt-3 ligand signal through the tyrosine kinase receptor Flt-3/Flk-2. Flt-3 ligand induces the expansion of monocytes and immature dendritic cells as well as early B cell lineage differentiation. It synergizes with IL-3, GM-CSF, and SCF to promote the mobilization and myeloid differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. Animal studies report Flt-3 ligand to reduce the severity of experimentally induced allergic inflammation. Human Flt-3 ligand shares 71% and 65% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Flt-3 Ligand, respectively.

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.

Standard Curve comparison between Mouse Flt3 ligand SimpleStep ELISA kit and traditional ELISA kit from leading competitor. SimpleStep ELISA kit shows increased sensitivity.
-
The Flt3 ligand 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 Flt3 ligand were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Flt3 ligand standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 100%, plasma (citrate) 100%, plasma (EDTA) 100%, plasma (heparin) 100%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Flt3 ligand concentration was determined to be 232.95 pg/mL in serum, 163.28 pg/mL in plasma (citrate), 184.73 pg/mL in plasma (EDTA)and 269.77 pg/mL in plasma (heparin).
