Melatonin, also known as N-acetyl-5-methoxy tryptamine, is a hormone that is produced by the pineal gland in animals and regulates sleep and wakefulness. Melatonin is also produced in plants where it functions as a first line of defense against oxidative stress.
Bovine Melatonin (MT) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate MT in samples. An antibody specific for MT has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyMT present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for MT is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of MT bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
