Benefits of MitoSciences' Dipstick Assay Technology:

• Very simple - they require minimal sample prep and only a few overall steps.

• Very rapid assays - the total assay time (including sample prep) is < 1 hour.

• Very sensitive assays - as little as 3 µg of sample material per well is required.

• Suitable for a wide range of sample types: tissue, cultured cells, blood, cheek swab material.

• Available for a variety of species: human, mouse, rat.

• Do not require isolation of mitochondria.


Sandwich ELISA Kits - Dipsticks


Dipstick assays use the well-established lateral flow concept, whereby capture antibodies are striped onto nitrocellulose membrane and a Whatman paper wicking pad draws the sample through the antibody bands. Detector antibodies, conjugated to gold, are dried in the wells of a 96-well plate. Sample is added to the well, the dipstick inserted, and within minutes the line for each target is revealed as the protein-detector antibody-gold complex binds with the capture antibodies. Multiplexing dipstick assays have multiple target protein lines. A positive control goat anti-mouse antibody line is included on all assays to ensure that adequate wicking of the sample occurred.
