Researchers develop ELISA detecting CJC-1295 in horse plasma at 12.5 pg/mL

The wire

1. 01Writing in Drug Testing and Analysis, Timms and colleagues report an ELISA detecting CJC-1295 protein conjugates in equine plasma down to 12.5 pg/mL.
2. 02CJC-1295's drug affinity complex crosslinks the peptide to plasma proteins with free cysteine residues, extending half-life and making it behave more like a protein doping agent than a typical peptide.
3. 03Validation used blood from thoroughbred racehorses after a single 10mg subcutaneous dose; the paper does not address human testing applications.
