Assay Principle	This kit utilizes a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique. Rabbit anti-mouse antibody is precoated on a high-affinity ELISA plate. Cortisol-specific monoclonal antibodies are added to the wells of the plate and incubated, allowing them to bind to the solid-phase antibodies. After washing, HRP-labeled cortisol and unlabeled cortisol or samples are added, competing for limited binding sites on the monoclonal antibody. After washing to remove unbound substances, a chromogenic substrate is added, and the intensity of the color reaction is inversely proportional to the concentration of cortisol in the sample. The reaction is terminated by adding a stop solution, and the absorbance value is measured at a wavelength of 450 nm (with a reference wavelength range of 570-630 nm). This assay kit has been validated for human, mouse, and rat serum samples, but cortisol from other species is also expected to be detectable.

Competitive ELISA: Principles, Methods, and Key Differences

Competitive ELISA is a widely used immunoassay technique for quantifying target analytes in samples by measuring their interference with a known signal. This method is based on the principle of limited antibodies, where the target analyte competes with a labeled antigen for antibody binding. Competitive ELISA is commonly used for detecting small molecules with fewer epitopes and is available in direct and indirect formats. This article explains the fundamental principles, experimental workflow, and key differences between direct and indirect competitive ELISA, helping researchers choose the optimal method for their applications.
