Application: Monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP1; also known as CCL2), is a chemokine that can be expressed in monocytes, macrophages, and endothelial cells, and belongs to the CC subfamily of chemokines. Chemokines are a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. Research has shown that the expression of MCP1 increases in the serum of patients with acute myocarditis. MCP1 is up-regulated in many types of CNS injury, including ischemia, hemorrhage, trauma, infection, hypoxia, and peripheral nerve axotomy. MCP1 has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by monocytic infiltrates, such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and atherosclerosis.

This test kit is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The MMP-2 ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous MMP-2. The assay recognizes human MMP-2. An antibody specific for MMP-2 has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The MMP-2 protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another antibody of biotinylated specific for MMP-2 is added to detect the captured MMP-2 protein. For signal development, Streptavidin-HRP is added, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm.
