HAMA Interference Kit

Original price was: $1,295.00.Current price is: $695.00.

Catalog #: K2010009
HAMA Interference Kit consists of six serum samples (2 mL each) to be used to test HAMA interference in immunoassays. The kit includes five serum samples (PS1 to PS5) with a HAMA titer ~ 0-250 ng/mL (actual values are lot dependent). The kit also includes a negative serum sample (NS). HAMA titers were established with a cleared HAMA ELISA method.

About HAMA

Immunoassays rely heavily on mouse antibodies for the detection of various analytes. The accuracy of these assays can, however, suffer when samples contain human anti-mouse antibodies (HAMA). Indeed, HAMA are often associated with inaccurate results because they can bind to both capture and detection antibodies and can generate non-specific signals. This so-called HAMA effect is major interference issue. Assessing the tolerance of an immunoassay to HAMA and mitigating it is very important important during research and development.
