Cat#:EIA-277C;Product Name:Mouse MMP2 ELISA Kit;Size:96T;Sample:serum, plasma and other biological fluids;Intended use:RUO;Synonym:Mmp2; matrix metallopeptidase 2; GelA; Clg4a; MMP-2; 72 kDa type IV collagenase; gelatinase A; 72kD gelatinase; 72kDa gelatinase; 72 kDa gelatinase; 72kD type IV collagenase; 72kDa type IV collagenase; matrix metalloproteinase 2; matrix metalloproteinase-2;Background:The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of at least eighteen secreted and membrane-bound zinc endopeptidases. MMP2, also known as Gelatinase A, is a type IV collagenase that specifically cleaves type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes. The metastatic potential of tumor cells has been found to correlate with the activity of this enzyme.;Species Reactivity:Mouse;Application:quantitative;Storage:Unopened Kit: Store at 2 - 8°C. Do not use past kit expiration date. Opened/Reconstituted Reagents: TMB Solution A; TMB Solution B; TMB Stop Solution; Wash Buffer; HRP-conjugate antibody The above mentioned reagents should be stored for up to 1 month at 2 - 8°C. Microplate Wells: Return unused wells to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, reseal along entire edge of zip-seal. May be stored for up to 1 month at 2 - 8°C.;Usage:For Lab Research Use Only;Detection Principle:Sandwish ELISA;
