Related Product Information for LTA elisa kit
Background: Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) is a major component of the cell wall in bacteria that are gram-positive. These bacteria contain an inner "cytoplasmic" membrane and, outside it, a thick layer of peptidoglycan (as much as 80 nanometers). The structure of LTA is different depending on the species of Gram-positive bacteria and may have long chains of ribitol or glycerol phosphate. LTA is affixed to the cell membrane via a diacylglycerol and acts as regulator of autolytic wall enzymes known as muramidases. LTA can have immunogenic properties like other antigens and are able to stimulate specific immune responses. LTA from bacteria may bind to target mammalian cells either through membrane phospholipids, or to specific proteins such as CD14 and Toll-like receptors. Binding to TLR-2 has shown to induce expression of the transcription factor NF-kappaB, which results in increasing expression of both activating and inhibiting apoptotic genes. Activation of NF-kappaB also stimulates activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) as well as phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). The LTA ELISA Kit provides a quick and convenient system to measure LTA from mammalian serum, plasma, cell, or tissue samples; it provides sufficient reagents for up to 96 tests in a 96-well plate including standard curve and unknown samples. Detection sensitivity is 15.6 ng/mL.

Product Notes
The LTA (Catalog #AAA44686) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "LTA (Lipoteichoic Acid), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
