Product Information
KE20036 is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The rat E-Cadherin ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous rat E-Cadherin. The assay recognizes rat E-Cadherin. An antibody specific for rat E-Cadherin has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The rat E-Cadherin protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated antibody specific for rat E-Cadherin is added to detect the captured rat E-Cadherin protein. For signal development, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450 nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm.

Background Information
E-cadherin is a transmembrane glycoprotein that connects epithelial cells at adherens junctions. In normal cells, E-cadherin exerts its tumor-suppressing role mainly by sequestering β-catenin from its binding to LEF (Lymphoid enhancer factor)/TCF (T cell factor), which serves the function of transcribing genes of the proliferative Wnt signaling pathway. The loss of E-cadherin expression associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) occurs frequently during tumor metastasis. Furthermore, Soluble E-cadherin (an 80-kDa soluble form) may be biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancer.

FAQ
1、I have limited sample diluent. How should I handle samples requiring high dilution factors?
Answer: We recommend performing a serial dilution. For example, if human serum requires a 1,000,000-fold dilution, you can use a three-step 100× dilution method as follows:
Step 1: Take 2 uL of human serum and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 100-fold diluted sample.
Step 2: Take 2 uL of the 100-fold diluted sample and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 10,000-fold diluted sample.
Step 3: Take 2 uL of the 10,000-fold diluted sample and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 1,000,000-fold diluted sample.
If further dilution is required, additional serial steps can be used. We do not recommend using any other solutions or water for dilution, except for the sample diluent we suggest. If your sample diluent is still insufficient, please contact our customer service for more sample diluent.
