Toxo IgA ELISA Kit Background Information:
Toxoplasmosis is caused by the intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii and may be contracted by consuming contaminated meat or by contact with cat feces containing oocysts. In adolescence and adulthood, most infections are subclinical. However, if a pregnant woman contracts toxoplasmosis, it may be passed through the placenta to the fetus, resulting in congenital toxoplasmosis, which is a cause of mortality and malformation. Asymptomatic infants may develop anomalies later in life.
Toxo IgA ELISA Test Principle:
Purified Toxoplasma gondii antigen is coated on the surface of microwells. Diluted patient serum is added to wells, and the Toxoplasma gondii IgA specific antibody, if present, binds to the antigen. All unbound materials are washed away. After adding enzyme conjugate, it binds to the antibodyantigen complex. Excess enzyme conjugate is washed off and TMB Chromogenic substrate is added. The enzyme conjugate catalytic reaction is stopped at a specific time. The intensity of the color generated is proportional to the amount of IgA specific antibody in the sample. The results are read by a microwell reader compared in a parallel manner with calibrator and controls.

Product Note:
When using DAI Toxoplasam IgA ELISA, store the kit at 2 - 8C. Always keep microwells tightly sealed in pouch with desiccants. We recommend you use up all wells within 4 weeks after initial opening of the pouch. The reagents are stable until expiration of the kit. Do not expose test reagents to heat, sun or strong light during storage or usage.
