Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) ELISA kit (K1 based)
10623002
Product group Assays
Overview
- SupplierNordic-MUbio
- Product NameDouble-stranded RNA (dsRNA) ELISA kit (K1 based)
- Delivery Days Customer7
- Application Supplier NoteWe recommend using the kit to detect viral dsRNAs or large natural or synthetic dsRNAs of non-viral origin in nucleic acid extracts, as well as to detect the presence of undesired dsRNA molecules in artificially synthesized (m)RNA preparations. Serial dilutions of the Poly(I:C) dsRNA standard (included in the kit) can be used as a positive control. For the exact detection protocol we refer to the kit manual that can be downloaded from our website, Caution: The Poly(I:C) dsRNA positive control included in this sandwich ELISA kit is not intended to be used as a quantitative standard for other dsRNA preparations. The anti dsRNA antibodies K1 and/or K2 used in this kit may exhibit a different degree of reactivity with different dsRNAs obtained from synthetic or natural sources. It is therefore only intended to be used as a positive control to see if the ELISA has been executed correctly and that the test shows a linear relationship between the amount of dsRNA and the read out for the OD450.
