Target
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL; also called lipocalin 2, siderocalin and neutrophil lipocalin) is a member of the lipocalin family of proteins which bind and transport small lipophilic molecules. NGAL is released by activated neutrophils and occurs as 25-kDa glycosylated single protein chain monomers, which form dimers and small amounts of higher oligomers, as well as complexes with matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9; gelatinase B). Low level expression of NGAL in a variety of epithelia may be increased in inflammation or cancers. Expression of NGAL in the kidney is dramatically increased by acute kidney injury.
Application 1
ELISA
ABS 062-33 binds human NGAL coated onto a solid phase.?
ABS 062-33 forms a sandwich pair with HYB 211-01, -02, ABS 038-04, -14, 15, -23, -26 and ABS 062-14 for measuring human NGAL.
When ABS 062-33 is used as capture antibody with ABS 062-14 as biotinylated detection antibody, the assay is specific for NGAL monomer, cross-reacting <1% with NGAL homodimer.
