Product overview
Mouse IGF1 ELISA Kit (ab240685) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of IGF1 protein in cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, hep plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse IGF1 with 9.05 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.

Function
The insulin-like growth factors, isolated from plasma, are structurally and functionally related to insulin but have a much higher growth-promoting activity. May be a physiological regulator of [1-14C]-2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) transport and glycogen synthesis in osteoblasts. Stimulates glucose transport in rat bone-derived osteoblastic (PyMS) cells and is effective at much lower concentrations than insulin, not only regarding glycogen and DNA synthesis but also with regard to enhancing glucose uptake. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in IGF1 are the cause of insulin-like growth factor I deficiency (IGF1 deficiency) [MIM:608747]. IGF1 deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by growth retardation, sensorineural deafness and mental retardation. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the insulin family. -

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.

Mouse IGF1 Standard Curve Comparison.Standard Curve comparison between mouse IGF1 SimpleStep ELISA kit and traditional ELISA kit from leading competitor. SimpleStep ELISA kit shows increased sensitivity. -
Example of mouse IGF1 standard curve in Sample Diluent NS.The IGF1 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. -
Interpolated concentrations of native IGF1 in mouse serum and plasma samples.The concentrations of IGF1 were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IGF1 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 0.5%, plasma (citrate) 1%, and plasma (heparin) 0.5%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IGF1 concentration was determined to be 188.98 ng/mL in serum, 90.88 ng/mL in plasma (citrate) and 217.88 ng/mL in and plasma (heparin). -
