A rapid ELISA method has been developed to quantitate myoglobin in serum. An antigen capture enzyme-linked immunoassay with IgG1 mouse monoclonal antibodies produced by cell clones MGB20-4A1.1 and MGB20-3C1.2 were used for myoglobin detection. These monoclonal antibodies are specific for different epitopes of the myoglobin molecule. Monoclonal antibodies from the hybridoma clone MGB20-4A1.1 were adsorbed to microtiter plate wells. The plates were washed with PBS containing 0.05% Tween 20 and then 20 microliter of standard serum or serum of patients and 200 microliter of peroxidase labeled monoclonal antibodies MGB20-3C1.2 were added to each well. Plates were incubated for 90 min at 37 degrees C and enzyme activity was determined using o-phenylenediamine as a substrate. The ELISA assay described is a rapid and sensitive procedure to assess the quantity of myoglobin within the range 2-1000 ng/ml serum. 120 samples can be tested in 3 h.

D009211 Myoglobin A conjugated protein which is the oxygen-transporting pigment of muscle. It is made up of one globin polypeptide chain and one heme group.
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
