Assay Principle
ALB (Albumin) is a biomarker protein expressed in canine tissues and biological fluids. Dysregulation of Albumin has been implicated in cellular signaling and fundamental cell biology, making it a relevant biomarker for investigational studies.
Quantitative measurement of Albumin enables researchers to characterize its abundance in Serum, Plasma and correlate levels with experimental conditions. Studies investigating Albumin have contributed to the understanding of cell signaling pathways, disease pathogenesis, and therapeutic target validation.
This competitive ELISA kit provides a validated, reproducible format for Albumin quantification within the inhibition range of 1.56-100 Mu g/mL. The assay supports experimental workflows in Cell Biology research.
Kit Components
Each kit contains sufficient reagents for one 96-well plate (approximately 40 samples in duplicate with standard curve):
Pre-coated microplate (96 wells), HRP-conjugated antigen, standard protein, sample diluent, wash buffer, TMB substrate solution, stop solution, and product manual.

Assay Procedure Summary
Add samples and HRP-conjugated antigen simultaneously to pre-coated wells and incubate. Wash, add TMB substrate, and read at 450 nm. Signal is inversely proportional to ALB concentration. Construct a standard inhibition curve from the provided reference antigen to calculate sample concentrations. Total protocol time: approximately 2.5 hours.
Pre-warm all kit components to room temperature (18–25 °C) for 30 minutes before starting. Run all samples in duplicate. Centrifuge samples at ≥1,000 × g before use to remove particulates.

This kit is validated for serum and plasma. Centrifuge samples at ≥1,000 × g for 15 min to remove particulates. Avoid hemolyzed, lipemic, or heat-inactivated samples. As a competitive format, higher analyte concentration produces lower signal — dilute proportionally. Pre-dilute samples within the linear range before committing full plates.
Minimum detectable concentration: 0.49 Mu g/mL. Quantitative standard curve range: 1.56-100 Mu g/mL. Samples above the upper limit must be diluted; near-lower-limit samples require duplicate measurement.
Total protocol time is approximately 2.5 hours of hands-on and incubation time. Pre-warm all reagents and prepare dilution series in advance. Set up a timer for each incubation step to maintain consistent timing across plates.
A standard microplate spectrophotometer set to 450 nm (reference: 540–570 nm) is required. An automated plate washer reduces wash-step variability. Calibrate and warm up your reader before measuring. Blank using the zero-standard or buffer-only well before constructing the standard curve.
Recommended storage: Store the unopened kit in the fridge at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. Once opened store individual kit contents according to components table provided with the kit.. Reconstituted standard is stable at 4 °C for ≤1 week; prepare fresh for critical experiments.
