The SMC^® Human Phospho-a-Synuclein (S129) High Sensitivity Immunoassay Kit contains all reagents required to perform the assay. This assay takes advantage of a standard immunoassay workflow configured in a standard plate format.
Assay protocols are similar to existing sandwich ELISA methods with two key differences:
1) Elution buffer disrupts the sandwich, separating the labeled detection antibody for quantification.
2) The Erenna and SMCxPRO^® immunoassay systems detect analytes using Single Molecule Counting (SMC^®) technology.

The sensitivity of the Single Molecule Counting (SMC^®) technology gives the SMC^® Human phospho-a-synuclein (S129) High Sensitivity Immunoassay Kit unparalleled performance in the quantification of phospho-a-synuclein (S129) in human CSF, serum, and plasma.

This new streamline kit has the following features including:

• Improved options for sample prep and incubation
• Lyophilization of the standard provides the kit at one storage condition
• Removal of a plate transfer step
• Increased reagent volumes to accommodate automation
• Validated to run on both SMCxPRO^® and Erenna
