Product overview
Abcam’s IgE Rat ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the quantitative measurement of IgE in rat samples.
In this assay the IgE present in samples reacts with the anti-IgE antibodies which have been adsorbed to the surface of polystyrene microtitre wells. After the removal of unbound proteins by washing, anti-IgE antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are added. These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound IgE. Following another washing step, the enzyme bound to the immunosorbent is assayed by the addition of a chromogenic substrate, 3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The quantity of bound enzyme varies directly with the concentration of IgE in the sample tested; thus, the absorbance, at 450 nm, is a measure of the concentration of IgE in the test sample. The quantity of IgE in the test sample can be interpolated from the standard curve constructed from the standards, and corrected for sample dilution.

Relevance
IgE is the class of antibodies produced in the lungs, skin, and mucous membranes. It may protect against parasite invasion, but it is a major factor in allergic reactions. The antigen-specific IgE interacts with mast cells and eosinophils, triggers the release of histamine, leukotrienes and other substances that lead to the itching, sneezing and congestion of allergies - and the life threatening respiratory distress of asthma and anaphylactic shock. -
