Antibody and ELISA Kit for Detection of Pentosan Polysulfate (PPS)
Catalog Nos P1126 (Antibody) & K1126 (ELISA kit)
Tool for Bio-equivalence studies of a Pentosan Polysulfate formulation
Detects the drug in plasma at a sensitivity of 2.6 ng/ml
     

Pentosan Polysulfate (PPS) is an approved medication for Interstitial Cystitis, more commonly known as painful bladder syndrome. There has been increased clinical attention of this drug as multiple research reports indicate its role in tumor growth inhibition, as an anti-HIV agent, as inhibitor of atherosclerosis and for the treatment of osteoarthritis. This ELISA kit can sensitively detect PPS in human plasma and urine samples.

Abexome has developed a rabbit polyclonal antibody that can detect PPS. The ELISA kit uses this antibody for sensitive detection of PPS in human plasma. It can also be adopted (with minor modifications in protocol) for detection of PPS in human urine as well as in aqueous solution.

Antibody Details

  • Type: Polyclonal Antibody raised in Rabbits
  • Immunogen used: Pentosan Polysulfate
  • Purity: Purified on Protein-A column
  • Formulation Buffer: 1X PBS with 50% Glycerol (may change based on end-user requirement)
  • Sample Applications: Indirect ELISA, Inhibition ELISA (ELISA assays require HRP-labeled secondary antibody for detection)

 

Assay Principle

Matrix containing the analyte i.e. PPS is coated on microtiter plates pre-coated with PLL. The bound PPS is then detected by adding PPS polyclonal antibody followed by detection with anti-rabbit IgG peroxidase conjugate/TMB substrate. The signal produced is measured at 450 nm in a microtiter plate reader. Key steps of the assay and approximate time taken for each step are outlined below.
Sl No Step Time Taken
1 Plate Pre-processing 2.5 - 3 hrs
2 Analyte Coating and incubation 2.5 hr
3 Blocking 1 hr
4 Primary Antibody Binding 1.5 hr
5 Detection Antibody Binding 1.5 hr
6 Substrate Addition and Measurement 45 min
7 Calculation of Results 15 min

ELISA Kit Performance Summary

A complete validation exercise was done in human plasma matrix following industry guidelines on ligand binding assays. Key performance characteristics of the assay are:
Sl No Parameter Observed Value Remarks
1 Sensitivity/LLOQ 2.6 ng/ml Determined by the criteria that %AR is within 75-125% range at LLOQ
2 Range of Quantification 2.6 - 166.5 ng/ml Determined by the criteria that %AR is within 80-120% for the calibrator standard within the assay range except at LLOQ where it is within 75-125%
3 Precision (intra-assay) < 20% Determined by %CV for all QC samples
4 Precision (inter-assay) < 16% Determined by %CV for all QC samples
5 Accuracy (intra-assay) within 80-120% Determined by %AR for all QC samples
6 Accuracy (inter-assay) within 80-120% Determined by %AR for all QC samples
