Features & Benefits
Mouse Extracellular sulfatase Sulf-2 (SULF2) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Mouse SULF2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Mouse SULF2 and analogues was observed.
Background
Sulfatase 2contains an N-terminal signal sequence, followed by a sulfatase domain, a hydrophilic region, and a C-terminal substrate recognition domain.SULF2 shares about 64% identity with SULF1 and 94% identity with mouse Sulf2. PCR detected SULF2 expression in most human tissues examined, with highest levels in ovary, skeletal muscle, stomach, brain, uterus, heart, kidney, and placenta. Western blot analysis of transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and culture medium detected SULF2 proteins with apparent molecular masses of 132, 64, and 60 kD in the culture medium. Treatment with furin inhibitors resulted in a single 132-kD species, and treatment with N-glycanase reduced the molecular mass from 132 kD to 100 kD.
This Extracellular sulfatase Sulf-2 (SULF2) ELISA kit is validated for use with Cell culture supernatants, Serum, Plasma, Other biological fluids. Samples should be collected, processed, and stored correctly to preserve analyte integrity — avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles and centrifuge to remove particulates before use. Dilute samples exceeding the kit's detection range using the supplied assay diluent. Hemolytic, icteric, or lipemic samples may affect assay performance and should be tested with caution.
This is a sandwich ELISA kit employing an HRP (horseradish peroxidase)-conjugated secondary antibody paired with a TMB (3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine) colorimetric substrate. In the sandwich format, the target analyte Extracellular sulfatase Sulf-2 (SULF2) captured on the microplate surface is detected by the conjugated antibody, generating a colorimetric signal proportional to analyte concentration. The reaction is stopped and absorbance measured at 450 nm on a standard microplate reader.
The complete protocol, from sample addition to final plate reading, requires approximately 3–5 hours. This includes two incubation periods (analyte binding and detection antibody steps), intermediate wash cycles to remove unbound material, 15–30 minutes of TMB substrate development, and final stop-solution addition before absorbance reading. Exact timing will vary with experience level and the number of samples processed in parallel.
Required equipment: (1) a microplate spectrophotometer capable of reading absorbance at 450 nm (reference wavelength 540–570 nm recommended for background correction); (2) precision single-channel or multichannel pipettes; (3) a plate washer or multichannel aspirator; (4) a microcentrifuge for sample clarification; and (5) a 37°C incubator or stable room-temperature environment. No fluorescence or luminescence reader is required — standard colorimetric plate readers are fully compatible with this kit.
This ELISA kit is formally validated for Mouse. Cross-reactivity with species not listed in the specification has not been independently characterized. Variability in protein sequence homology across species means that performance in unlisted species cannot be guaranteed without additional validation.
