Rabies virus Glycoprotein G ELISA Kit (For Vaccine Development)

背景（Background）

Rabies virus (RABV), scientific name Rabies lyssavirus, is a deadly neurotropic virus that causes rabies in humans and animals. Rabies virus has an extremely wide host range and its transmission most often occur through the saliva of animals. Without intervention prior to disease progression, rabies has the highest case fatality of any infectious disease. RABV contains a single-stranded negative-sense R genome that encodes five structural proteins: nucleoprotein (N), phosphoprotein (P), matrix protein (M), glycoprotein (G), and R-dependent R polymerase (L). Among these viral proteins, the RABV glycoprotein (RABV-G) is a pivotal player mediating virus entry and the major target of neutralizing antibodies, thus a key factor for vaccine and drug design.

A rapid and effective assay kit detecting the levels ofRABV-G is urgently needed to accelerate the development of RABV vaccines.

应用说明（Application）

This kit is developed for quantitative detection of Rabies virus Glycoprotein G in samples.

It is for research use only.

重构方法（Reconstitution）

Please see Certificate of Analysis for details of reconstitution instruction and specific concentration.

存储（Storage）

1. Unopened kit should be stored at 2℃-8℃ upon receiving.

2. Find the expiration date on the outside packaging and do not use reagents past their expiration date.

3. The opened kit should be stored per components table. The shelf life is 30 days from the date of opening.

原理（Assay Principles）

This assay kit employs a standard sandwich-ELISA format, providing a rapid detection of Glycoprotein G (RABV). The kit consists of Pre-coated Anti-Glycoprotein G (RABV) Antibody Microplate and Glycoprotein G (RABV) Standard,HRP-Anti-Glycoprotein G (RABV) Antibody and buffers.

Your experiment will include 5 simple steps:

a) Bring all reagents and samples to room temperature (20℃-25℃) before use.

b) Add your sample to the plate, take the Glycoprotein G (RABV) as Control sample. The samples and Control sample are diluted by Dilution Buffer.

c) Add the HRP-Anti-Pre-Fusion glycoprotein F0 (RSV) Antibody diluted by Dilution Buffer to the plate.

d) Wash the plate and add TMB.

e) Stop the substrate reaction by adding diluted acid. Absorbance (OD) is calculated as the absorbance at 450 nm minus the absorbance at 630 nm to remove background prior to statistical analysis. The OD Value reflects the amount of protein bound.
