Test Principle
This ELISA kit uses the Competitive-ELISA principle. The micro ELISA plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with Bovine Cortisol. Samples (or Standards) and Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) linked antibody specific for Bovine Cortisol are added to the micro ELISA plate wells. Bovine Cortisol in samples (or standards) competes with a fixed amount of Cortisol on the solid phase supporter for sites on the HRP linked detection antibody specific to Cortisol. Excess conjugate and unbound sample or standard are washed from the plate. The substrate solution is added to each well. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of stop solution and the color turns yellow. The optical density (OD) is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450±2 nm. The concentration of Bovine Cortisol in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.

Technical Data:
Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, mid range and high level Cortisol were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, mid range and high level Cortisol were tested on 3 different plates, 20 replicates in each plate.

Assay Procedures
 |
1. Add 50µL each standard and sample. Immediately add 50µL of HRP linked Ab working solution. Incubate for 60 min at 37°C. |
 |
2. Aspirate and wash the plate for 5 times. |
 |
3. Add 90µL of Substrate Reagent. Incubate for about 15 min at 37°C. |
 |
4. Add 50µL of Stop Solution. |
 |
5. Read the plate at 450nm immediately. Calculation of the results |
