The Types Of Cancer ELISA Kits

By Lila Bryant


First of all, it is important to know the meaning of ELISA. This is an abbreviation for enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The Cancer ELISA kits are used for the components of the chemicals and immune system in detecting the responses in the body for any infectious microbes. The test involves an enzyme or a protein that causes a certain reaction. It involves any antigen the body.

The cancer antigen 125 is quick kit to identify an antigen concentration in the human serum. It usually comes with three characteristics. It is usually easy, rapid and efficient. It is easy due to its characteristics that can be found in one scheme only that needs no other equipment to function. It is efficient due to the test that can reach up to 96 samples and can give a result within four hours. This is the best tool to screen a serum sample for many antigens that detects cancers.

The breast cancer susceptibility protein 1 or commonly abbreviated by BRCA1 is a high and a sensitive kit in detecting anyone with breast tumor. The advantage of this equipment is through the loss of rate activity. Meaning, that the five percent of the total duration of its effectiveness is under in a storage condition. In having a lesser impact to its performance, the room temperature, operating procedures and the lab condition should be controlled properly.

Tumor marker for lung cancer is a sandwich kind of kit that contains enzyme immunoassay that measures a tumor in a human serum, in the plasma and other biological serum. This consists of a specific detection of an antigen. It composed of a lower limitation of detection that contains a lower concentration of protein identified from zero.

Early prostate cancer antigen 2 or the EPCA2. The components of this kit are reagents, pre coated, that is ready to use with ninety six well strip plate, plate sealer that is for 96 wells, standard or freeze dried, standard diluent, detection reagent, assay diluent A, assay diluent B, stop solution and wash buffer. The kits that came from different batches are different in sensitivity, detection range and color developing time.

A signal transduction assay reaction is a reliable method for detecting an amount of targets using the Phospho specific antibodies. It is commonly a solid phase sandwich enzyme that is providing a system for a target detection in a cell extract. The entire process of assay is not more than five hours.

The ovarian tumor marker is an aggressive enzyme immunoassay system that utilizes a monoclonal antibody. The buffer and samples are elaborated together in a pre coated plate for one hour. After the whole process, the wells are strained and washed for five times.

A DNA damage EIA is also a competitive colorimetric enzyme immunoassay that may last for 2.5 hours. It has already proven that samples are convenient and supplied with a 96 well plate format. The assessment of DNA are through urine, saliva and serum. The samples are composed of plasma, seminal fluids, culture supernatant, DNA extracts and cell lysates.

These are just a few of the type of kits that is available for both human and animal detection for tumors. Since it has different kinds and specifications, it is still the decision of physician on how it would be treated.
