Serial dilutions within the plate may also be performed by pipetting 100 µL of Assay Diluent into each standard well except the highest (2000 pg/mL), then adding 100 µL of the 2000 pg/mL standard to both that well and the 1000 pg/mL well, mixing the well contents by rinsing the pipette tip, and adding 100 µL of the 1000 pg/mL standard to the 500 pg/mL well. Continue these dilutions to the 31.3 pg/mL standard well, out of which the extra 100 µL should be discarded.

説明

    Materials Provided

  

  

    The OptEIA™ Set for human interleukin-12 (IL-12 (p40)) contains the components necessary to develop enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for natural or recombinant human IL-12(p40) in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. Sufficient materials are provided to yield approximately 20 plates of 96-wells if the recommended storage, materials, buffer preparation, and assay procedure are followed as specified in this package.  

  

  

  

    Assay Optimization  

  

    BD OptEIA™ Sets allow flexible assay design to fit individual laboratory needs. To design an immunoassay with different sensitivity and dynamic range, the following parameters can be varied: Capture, Detection Antibody titers, Incubation time, Incubation temperature, Assay Diluent formulation, Buffer pH, ionic strength, protein concentration, Type of substrate, Washing technique (i.e., number of wash repetitions and soak times)  

  

  

  

    Standardization: This immunoassay is calibrated against purified Baculovirus-expressed recombinant human IL-12 (p40).  

調製と保管

Store unopened reagents at 2-8°C. do not use reagents after expiration date, or if turbidity is evident. Before use, bring all reagents to room temperature (18-25°C). Immediately after use, return to proper storage conditions. Lyophilized standards are stable until expiration date. After reconstitution, immediately aliquot standard stock in polypropylene vials at 50 µl per vial anf freeze at -80°C for up to 6 months. If necessary, store at 2-8°C for up to 8 hours prior to aliquotting/freezing. Do not leave reconstituted standard at room temperature.

    Specimen Collection and Handling: Specimens should be clear, non-hemolyzed and non-lipemic.   

  

    Cell culture supernatants: Remove any particulate material by centrifugation and assay immediately or store samples at ≤ -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.  

  

    Serum: Use a serum separator tube and allow samples to clot for 30 minutes, then centrifuge for 10 minutes at 1000 x g. Remove serum and assay immediately or store samples at ≤ -20° C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.  

  

    Plasma: Collect plasma using citrate, EDTA, or heparin as anticoagulant. Centrifuge for 10 minutes at 1000 x g within 30 minutes of collection. Assay immediately or store samples at ≤ -20° C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.  

  

  

  

    Standards Preparation and Handling  

  

    1. Reconstitution: After warming lyophilized standard to room temperature, carefully open vial to avoid loss of material. Reconstitute lyophilized standard with 1.0 mL of deionized water to yield a stock standard. Allow the standard to equilibrate for at least 15 minutes before making dilutions. Vortex gently to mix.  

  

    2. Storage/ handling of reconstituted standard: After reconstitution, immediately aliquot standard stock in polypropylene vials at 50 μl per vial and freeze at -80°C  for up to 6 months. If necessary, store at 2-8° C for up to 8 hours prior to aliquotting/freezing. Do not leave reconstituted standard at room temperature.  

  

    3. Standards Preparation for Assay:   

  

    a. Prepare a 2000 pg/mL standard from the stock standard. Vortex to mix. (See dilution instructions on Instruction/Analysis Certificate.)  

  

    b. Add 300 μL Assay Diluent to 6 tubes. Label as 1000 pg/mL, 500 pg/mL, 250 pg/mL, 125 pg/mL, 62.5 pg/mL, and 31.3 pg/mL.  

  

    c. Perform serial dilutions by adding 300 μL of each standard to the next tube and vortexing between each transfer. Assay Diluent serves as the zero standard (0 pg/mL).  

  

  

  

    Working Detector Preparation  

  

    (Note: One-step incubation of Biotin/SAv reagents.) Add required volume of Detection Antibody to Assay Diluent. Within 15 minutes prior to use, add required quantity of Enzyme Reagent, vortex or mix well. For recommended dilutions, see lot-specific Instruction/Analysis Certificate. For a full 96-well plate, prepare 12 mL of Working Detector. Discard any remaining Working Detector after use.  

  

  

  

    Warnings and Precautions  

  

    1. Reagents which contain preservatives may be toxic if ingested, inhaled, or in contact with skin.  

  

    2. Handle all serum and plasma specimens in accordance with NCCLS guidelines for preventing transmission of blood-borne infections.  

  

    3. Capture Antibody contains < 0.1% sodium azide. Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.  

  

    4. Detection Antibody contains 1% BSA and ProClin™-150 as a preservative.  

  

    5. Enzyme Reagent contains 1% BSA and ProClin™-300 as preservative.  

  

    6. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

    6. Pipette 100 μL of each standard, sample, and control into appropriate wells. Seal plate and incubate for 2 hours at RT.  

  

    7. Aspirate/ wash as in step 2, but with 5 total washes.  

  

    8. Add 100 μL of Working Detector (Detection Antibody + SAv-HRP reagent) to each well. Seal plate and incubate for 1 hour at RT.  

  

    9. Aspirate/ wash as in step 2, but with 7 total washes.  

  

    10. Add 100 μL of Substrate Solution to each well. Incubate plate (without plate sealer) for 30 minutes at room temperature in the dark.  

  

    11. Add 50 μL of Stop Solution to each well.  

  

    12. Read absorbance at 450 nm within 30 minutes of stopping reaction. If wavelength correction is available, subtract absorbance at 570 nm from absorbance 450 nm.  

  

  

  

    Assay Procedure Summary  

  

    1. Add 100 μL diluted Capture Ab to each well. Incubate overnight at 4° C

    10. Add 50 μL Stop Solution to each well. Read at 450 nm within 30 min with λ correction 570 nm.  

  

  

  

    Calculation of Results  

  

    Calculate the mean absorbance for each set of duplicate standards, controls and samples. Subtract the mean zero standard absorbance from each. Plot the standard curve on log-log graph paper, with IL-12 concentration on the x-axis and absorbance on the y-axis. Draw the best fit curve through the standard points.  

  

    To determine the IL-12 concentration of the unknowns, find the unknown's mean absorbance value on the y-axis and draw a horizontal line to the standard curve. At the point of intersection, draw a vertical line to the x-axis and read the IL-12 concentration. If samples were diluted, multiply the IL-12 concentration by the dilution factor. Computer data reduction may also be employed, utilizing log-log regression analysis.
