Introduction
RayBio® Phospho-TAU (Ser199) Quantitative ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Human, Mouse phosphorylated TAU (Ser199). An anti-pan TAU antibody has been coated onto a 96-well plate. Standard and Samples are pipetted into the wells and TAU present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and rabbit anti-phospho-TAU (Ser199) antibody is used to detect phosphorylated TAU. After washing away unbound antibody, HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG is pipetted into the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of TAU (Ser199) bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
