Why Aβ40?
Amyloid beta (1-40) (Aβ40) is a complementary amyloid isoform typically used alongside Aβ42 to normalize individual variability and improve analytical precision. When combined as the Aβ42/40 ratio, it correlates with amyloid plaque burden in the brain.
Kit performance and specifications
This SPLASH kit is designed to quantify Aβ40 protein in biofluids using a qPCR instrument. Each kit includes sufficient materials to run a total of 96 wells across two runs.
100% detectability of Aβ40 across all plasma and CSF samples using the SPLASH Kit: Aβ40 Singleplex.
