CRY1Ab/CRY1Ac Plate Kit (Sandwich ELISA Kit)

Intended Use

The EnviroLogix Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac Plate Kit Is Designed For The Quantitative Laboratory Detection Of Cry1Ab Or Cry1Ac Residues In Corn And Cotton Leaf Tissue Samples.

General Use

 

The EnviroLogix Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac Plate Kit is a “sandwich” Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA). In the test plant leaf sample extracts are added to test wells coated with antibodies raised against Cry1Ab toxin. Any residues present in the sample extract bind to the antibodies and are then detected by addition of the enzyme (horseradish peroxidase) labeled Cry1Ab antibody. After a simple wash step the results of the assay are visualized with a color development step; color development is proportional to Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac concentration in the sample extract.

Lighter color = Lower concentration

Darker color = Higher concentration

The EnviroLogix Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac Plate Kit Can Be Used In The Following Testing Applications:

  • Quality Assurance During Transgenic Seed Production.
  • Large Scale Screening Of Plants To Assess Expression Of Gene.
  • Checking Truckloads Or Containers Of Grain At Elevator, Barge, Or Processing Plant.
