Abstract

Emax® ImmunoAssay Systems: Frequently Asked Questions

Promega offers Emax® ImmunoAssay Systems for the quantitation of BDNF, GDNF, NGF,
NT-3, TGFβ1 , and TGFβ2 in serum, cell culture supernatants, tissue extracts and other biological fluids. To increase sensitivity and specificity, the Emax® Systems use a two-antibody sandwich ELISA format in which the protein of interest is first captured with a plate-immobilized specific antibody and detected by a second antibody that recognizes a different epitope. When matched with data from Western and messenger RNA analyses, ELISAs provide a researcher a more complete picture of specific protein expression.
