Overview
AffiGEN’s Elastin Assay Kit is a quantitative dye-binding based method for the analysis of elastin levels in tissues and cultured cells. Due to its unique chemical composition and highly cross-linked nature, elastin is stable. But in this kit, elastin is denatured and solubilized under high heat and extreme pH conditions unlike other proteins. The isolated elastin then reacts with a dye to form a colored product, which is measured by absorbance at 513 nm. The colorimetric signal is directly proportional to the amount of elastin in samples. The assay is easy to perform, reliable and selective. It has a linear range of 5 μg-100 μg elastin per well.
