Sensitivity
Sensitivity was calculated by determining the OD of 20 reps of So and 20 reps of the low standard. Sensitivity was determined to be 0.006 IU/ml.
Intra-assay Precision
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.

Intended Uses: This human tPA activity assay is intended for the quantitative determination of active tissue plasminogen activator in human plasma and other biological fluids. For research use only.
Principle of the Assay: Functionally active tPA will form a covalent complex with the biotinylated human PAI-1 which is bound to the avidin on the plate. After appropriate washing steps, polyclonal anti-human tPA primary antibody binds to the captured tPA. Excess antibody is washed away and bound polyclonal antibody is then reacted with the secondary antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. Following an additional washing step, TMB is used for color development at 450nm. The amount of color development is directly proportional to the concentration of active tPA in the sample.
Background: Tissue plasminogen activator is a serine protease that catalyzes the activation of plasminogen to plasmin [1]. Clinical studies have indicated that high tPA levels may increase the risk for thrombosis [2], whereas decreased levels may cause neuronal plasticity and degeneration [3].

Product Notes
The General PLAT plat (Catalog #AAA37754) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA37754 ELISA Kit recognizes General PLAT. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "tPA functional assay, 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
