Product Overview

Description: Bovine insulin like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP-2) ELISA kit (0.94-60 ng/mL) is an ELISA-based in vitro research tool designed specifically for the quantitative detection of IGFBP-2 in bovine samples with a range of 0.94-60 ng/mL and a minimum detectable dose (sensitivity) of 0.32 ng/mL. The kit is highly sensitive and easy to use.

Assay Principle: The microtiter plate in this kit is pre-coated with an antibody specific to IGFBP-2. Standards or samples are added to the wells along with a biotin-conjugated detection antibody. Next, avidin-HRP is added and incubated. Upon the addition of TMB substrate, a color change occurs only in wells containing the IGFBP-2 sandwich complex. The reaction is terminated with a sulphuric acid solution, and the absorbance is measured at 450 nm ± 10 nm. The concentration of IGFBP-2 is determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

Background: IGFBP-2 is a multifunctional molecule that plays a crucial role in human growth, metabolism, and cellular processes by regulating the biological activity of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs). Primarily through binding to IGF proteins, IGFBP-2 prolongs their half-life in the body and modulates their interactions with cell surface receptors, thereby inhibiting or enhancing the pro-growth effects of IGFs. The role of IGFBP-2 in obesity has garnered increasing attention. Its reduced levels are closely associated with obesity, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance.

Synonyms: IBP-2; IGF-binding protein 2; IGFBP2; BP2, IBP2; Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 2, 36kDa; Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein 2

Applications: Bovine insulin like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP-2) ELISA kit (0.94-60 ng/mL) is used to quantify IGFBP-2 in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, and other biological fluids of bovine, providing data to support research in a wide range of areas, including immunity, endocrinology, signal transduction, obesity, and others.
