Hamster Lpl Elisa Kit

Description: Description of target: The primary function of this lipase is the hydrolysis of triglycerides of circulating chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Binding to heparin sulfate proteogylcans at the cell surface is vital to the function. The apolipoprotein, APOC2, acts as a coactivator of LPL activity in the presence of lipids on the luminal surface of vascular endothelium.;Species reactivity: Sheep;Application: ;Assay info: Assay Methodology: Quantitative Sanadwich ELISA;Sensitivity: 1.95 ng/mL

Description: Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the key plasma lipase responsible for hydrolysis of the triglyceride core in these particles. A mutation in the gene coding for LPL can cause reduced LPL levels (LPL deficiency), wherein the body does not produce sufficient LPL necessary for fatty acid breakdown. LPL deficiency results in elevated levels of chylomicrons and is also known as chylomicronemia or Type Ia hyperlipoproteinemia. Cell Biolabs? Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL) ELISA Kit is an enzyme immunoassay developed for the detection and quantitation of lipoprotein lipase in plasma, serum or other biological fluid samples. The kit detects LPL from human, cow, rat, guinea pig, chicken, but not mouse samples, and has a detection sensitivity limit of 20 ng/mLLPL.  Each kit provides sufficient reagents to perform up to 96 assays including standard curve and unknown samples.
