This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. A monoclonal antibody specific to Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) has been pre-coated onto a microplate. A competitive inhibition reaction is launched between biotin labeled Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) and unlabeled Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) (Standards or samples) with the pre-coated antibody specific to Leukotriene C4 (LTC4). After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. Next, avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. The amount of bound HRP conjugate is reverse proportional to the concentration of Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) in the sample. After addition of the substrate solution, the intensity of color developed is reverse proportional to the concentration of Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) in the sample.

The stability of kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.

The Kit is manufactured at ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certified facilities.
