Human Defensin Beta 2 (DEFB2) ELISA Kit | abx051085

Human Defensin Beta 2 (DEFB2) ELISA Kit is an ELISA Kit for the in vitro quantitative measurement of Human Defensin Beta 2 concentrations in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates and other biological fluids.

Introduction:

Beta-defensin 2 (BD-2) also known as skin-antimicrobial peptide 1 (SAP1) is a peptide that in humans is encoded by the DEFB4 (defensin, beta 4) gene. Human beta-defensin-2 (hBD-2) is a cysteine-rich cationic low molecular weight antimicrobial peptide recently discovered in lesional skin. Defensins form a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides made by neutrophils. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence. Beta-defensin 2 is an antibiotic peptide which is locally regulated by inflammation.

Target: Defensin Beta 2

Reactivity: Human

Tested Applications: ELISA

Recommended dilutions: Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Storage: Shipped at 4 °C. Upon receipt, store the kit according to the storage instruction in the kit's manual.

Validity: The validity for this kit is 6 months.

Stability: The stability of the kit is determined by the rate of activity loss. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage conditions. To minimize performance fluctuations, operation procedures and lab conditions should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same user throughout.

Test Range : 15.6 pg/ml - 1000 pg/ml

Sensitivity: 9.38 pg/ml
