Chicken Immunoglobulin A,IgA ELISA Kit
Product Details
| Description |
The sensitive quantitative measurement of total chicken Immunoglobulin A (IgA) antigen in serum, plasma is easily performed with this 96 well strip format ELISA kit. This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with IgA. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with HRP-conjugated antibody specific for IgA. The competitive inhibition reaction is launched between with pre-coated IgA and IgA in samples or standards for HRP-conjugates IgA antibody. After thorough washing, the TMB substrate solution is added to the wells, and the color develops in opposite to the amount of IgA in the sample. The color development is stopped upon the addition of the stop solution and the intensity of the color is measured by a microplate reader at 450 nm.
This Chicken IgA ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of IgA. And it also has been validated with precision low than 10%, good linearity, high recovery, and lot-to-lot consistency. Refer to the product instructions for more details.
IgA is the most abundant antibody present on mucosal surfaces where the pathogens enter the body. It plays a critical role in protecting from mucosal pathogens. The production of IgA exceeds the synthesis of all other Ig classes. IgA closely interacts with the intestinal microbiota to increase its diversity. And IgA has a passive protective role via immune exclusion. Additionally, inhibitory ITAM signaling via the IgA Fc receptor (FcαRI/CD89) by monomeric IgA may play a role in maintaining homeostasis. Conversely, IgA immune complexes effectively activate immune cells via cross-linking inhibitors, thereby inducing pro-inflammatory responses and clearing pathogens. The fact that several pathogens developed mechanisms to break down IgA or evade FcαRI-mediated activation of immune cells highlights the importance of IgA in the removal of pathogens. Enhanced or abnormal presence of IgA immune complexes can lead to overactivation of neutrophils, which can lead to severe tissue damage in a variety of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases.

| Materials provided |
- A 96-well Assay plate --The 96-well plate has been pre-coated with chicken IgA.
- Standard(10 x concentrate) (1 x 200 μl) --Dilute the standard at dilution series, read the OD values, and then draw a standard curve.
- HRP-conjugated IgA antibody(100 x concentrate) (1 x 60 μl) --Bind to the IgA, and HRP catalyzes the TMB to elicit a chromogenic reaction.
