Principle of the Assay: This kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. The purified anti-Desmin antibody was pre-coated onto 96-well plates. And the HRP conjugated anti-Desmin antibody was used as detection antibodies. The standards, test samples and HRP conjugated detection antibody were added to the wells subsequently, mixed and incubated, then, unbound conjugates were washed away with wash buffer. TMB substrates (A & B) were used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Desmin amount of sample captured in plate. Read the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader, and then the concentration of Desmin can be calculated.
Background: Desmin is a type III intermediate filament found near the Z line in sarcomeres. It was first described in 1976, first purified in 1977, the gene was cloned in 1989, and the first knock-out mouse was created in 1996. It is one of the earliest myogenic markers, both in heart and somites, and is expressed in satellite stem cells and replicating myoblasts. The desmin provides attachments between the terminal Z disc and membrane-associated proteins to form a force-transmitting system that parallels the thin filaments at myotendinous junctions. Desmin is also important in muscle cell architecture and structure since it connects many components of the cytoplasm. Finally, desmin may be important in mitochondria function. When desmin is not functioning properly there is improper mitochondrial distribution, number, morphology and function.

Product Notes
The Human DES des (Catalog #AAA58883) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA58883 ELISA Kit recognizes Human DES. AAA Biotech's Desmin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DES des for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Desmin, 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
