The Human NTF4 (Neurotrophin-4) ELISA Kit is a powerful tool for measuring the levels of neurotrophin-4 in human samples such as serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. With its exceptional sensitivity and specificity, this kit delivers precise and consistent results, making it an indispensable asset for various research applications. Neurotrophin-4 is a key neurotrophic factor that plays a vital role in promoting the growth and survival of neurons in the nervous system. Dysregulation of NTF4 has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and depression.
Therefore, accurate measurement of NTF4 levels is crucial for understanding the underlying mechanisms of these conditions and developing potential therapeutic interventions. In summary, the Human NTF4 ELISA Kit is an essential tool for researchers investigating the role of neurotrophin-4 in neurological diseases and exploring new treatment strategies. Its reliability and accuracy make it a valuable addition to any laboratory conducting cutting-edge research in neurobiology and neurodegenerative disorders.

Step
Procedure
1
Reagent & Plate Preparation: Equilibrate reagents and TMB substrate to room temperature. Set standard, test sample and control (zero) wells on the pre-coated plate and record their positions.
2
Primary Incubation: Prepare standards, samples, blanks and load into designated wells. Incubate plate at 37°C for 90 minutes to allow antigen binding.
3
Detection Antibody Binding: Add biotin-labeled detection antibody and incubate at 37°C for 60 minutes.
4
HRP-Streptavidin Binding: Add HRP-Streptavidin (SABC) and incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes.
5
Color Development: Add TMB substrate and incubate in the dark for 10–20 minutes.
6
Stop Reaction & Reading: Add stop solution and measure absorbance at 450 nm immediately.
