Incubate 2.5 h at RT or O/N at 4 °C.
Add 100 µl of prepared primary antibody to each well.
Incubate 1 h at RT.
Add 100 µl of prepared 1X HRP-Streptavidin to each well.
Incubate 1 h at RT.
Add 100 µl of TMB One-Step Substrate Reagent to each well.
Incubate 30 min at RT.

Read at 450 nm immediately.
Storage/Stability
Upon receipt, the kit should be stored at -20 °C. Please use within 6 months from the date of shipment. After initial use, Wash Buffer Concentrate (Item B), Assay Diluent (Item E), TMB One-Step Substrate Reagent (Item H), HRP-Streptavidin (Item G), Stop Solution (Item I) and Cell Lysate Buffer (Item J) should be stored at 4 °C to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Return unused wells to the pouch containing desiccant pack, reseal along entire edge and store at -20 °C. Reconstituted Positive Control (Item K) should be stored at -70 °C.
