Heparin Catcher HC1 Plates

Heparin Catcher HC1 Plates are specifically designed for in vitro measurement of unfractionated heparin in low-protein fluids using ELISA assays. The specialized surface of these plates immobilizes and measures heparin levels within a range of 0.01 to 2.0 U/ml. Heparin, a well-studied glycosaminoglycan known for its anticoagulant properties, is commonly used in both its native unfractionated form (UFH) and as low molecular weight (LMW) heparin. These heparin ELISA assays are competitive, with the colorimetric signal inversely proportional to the heparin concentration in the sample, ensuring accurate detection.

Heparin Catcher HC1 Coated 96 Well Plates are pre-blocked in order to minimize any non-specific binding and to ensure long-term stability.

Key Features

• Heparin Detection:It can detect concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 2.0 U/ml, making it ideal for accurate and sensitive assays.
• Blocking: Plates are pre blocked with standard proteic blocking (ELISA Blocking) or with non proteic blocking (BlockerWell)
• Low Fluorescence Polystyrene: Manufactured with pure high-quality polystyrene, minimizing background noise and improving optical clarity.
• Wells design: flat bottom.
• Multiple Formats: Available in breakable strip plates, non-breakable strip plates, and solid plates for flexibility in applications.
• Colors: Available in clear, white, and black. Customizable upper rim colors upon request. Reduced Crosstalk: White and black plates minimize well-to-well light scatter, improving signal accuracy in luminescence and fluorescence assays. Uniform Optical Properties: Clear plates are ideal for spectrophotometric readings and imaging, providing consistent and accurate light transmission.
