Manual of Human Pyruvate Dehydrogenase E1 (PDH E1) ELISA Kit

Human pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 (PDH E1) ELISA kit is for research use only

Intended application: ELISA method for quantitative determination of pyruvate dehydrogenase-E1 in human serum, plasma or other related fluids.

Experimental principle: This kit uses double antibody sandwich enzyme-labeled immunoassay to determine the level of pyruvate dehydrogenase-E1 in the specimen. The microtiter plate is coated with purified antibody to make a solid-phase antibody. Pyruvate dehydrogenase-E1 antigen, biotinylated anti-human pyruvate dehydrogenase-E1 antibody, HRP-labeled avidin, after thorough washing, is developed with the substrate TMB. TMB is converted into blue under the catalysis of peroxidase, and into the final yellow under the action of acid. The color depth is positively correlated with pyruvate dehydrogenase-E1 in the sample. The absorbance (OD value) was measured with a microplate reader at a wavelength of 450 nm, and the sample concentration was calculated.

Composition and preparation of human pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 (PDH E1) ELISA kit:

1. Enzyme-linked plate: one piece (96 wells)

Standard product (lyophilized product): 2 bottles, each bottle is diluted with sample diluent to 1ml before use, and left to stand for more than 10 minutes after being capped, and then repeatedly inverted / rubbed to help dissolve, its concentration is 100 nmol / L ， After serial dilution, it is diluted to 100 nmol / L, 50 nmol / L, 25 nmol / L, 12.5 nmol / L, 6.25 nmol / L, 3.12 nmol / L, 1.56 nmol / L, and the stock solution is directly used as The highest standard concentration, the sample diluent is directly used as the standard concentration of 0 nmol / L, and prepared within 15 minutes before use.

For example, to prepare a 50 nmol / L standard: take 0.5 ml of the 100 nmol / L standard above and add it to an Eppendorf tube containing 0.5 ml of sample diluent, mix well, and so on for the remaining concentrations.

2. Sample diluent: 1 × 20ml / bottle.

3. Test dilution A: 1 × 10ml / bottle.

9. Stop solution: 1 × 10ml / bottle (2N H2SO4).

Collection and preservation of specimens:

1. Plasma: EDTA or heparin can be used as an anticoagulant. Centrifuge the sample at 2-8 ° C 1000 xg for 15 minutes within 30 minutes after collection, or store the specimen at -20 ° C, but avoid repeated freezing and thawing.

2. Serum: Please leave the specimen at room temperature for 2 hours or 4 ° C overnight and centrifuge at 1000 xg for 20 minutes. Take the supernatant for testing, or store the specimen at -20 ° C, but avoid repeated freezing and thawing.

Note: Hemolysis of specimens will affect the final test results, so hemolysis specimens should not be tested.

Steps:

Before starting the experiment, please configure all reagents in advance. When diluting reagents or samples, they should be mixed well. Try to avoid foaming when mixing. A standard curve should be made for each test. If the sample concentration is too high, dilute with sample diluent to make the sample meet the detection range of the kit.

1. Add sample: set blank hole, standard hole and sample hole to be tested respectively. Add 100ul of sample diluent to the blank well, and 100ul of the standard or the sample to be tested in the remaining well. Be careful not to have air bubbles. Add the sample to the bottom of the well of the microtiter plate. Do not touch the wall of the well. The target plate is covered with a cover or film and reacted at 37 ° C for 120 minutes.

To ensure the validity of the experimental results, please use a new standard solution for each experiment.

2. Discard the liquid and spin dry without washing. Add 100ul of detection solution A working solution to each well (take 1ul of detection solution A plus 99ul of detection dilution A to prepare, mix gently and prepare within one hour before use), 37 ℃, 60 minutes.

3. After incubating for 60 minutes, discard the liquid in the well, spin dry, wash the plate 3 times, soak for 1-2 minutes each time, 350ul / per well, spin dry.

4. Add 100ul of detection solution B working solution (same as the detection A working solution) to each well at 37 ℃ for 60 minutes.

5. After incubating for 60 minutes, discard the liquid in the wells, spin dry, wash the plate 5 times, soak for 1-2 minutes each time, 350ul / per well, spin dry.

6. Add 90ul of substrate solution to each well in sequence, and avoid color development at 37 ℃. , You can terminate).

7. Add 50ul of stop solution to each well in sequence to stop the reaction (at this time, the blue color turns to yellow). The order of adding the stop solution should be the same as that of the substrate solution. In order to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results, the termination solution should be added as soon as possible after the substrate reaction time expires.

8. Measure the optical density (OD value) of each well in sequence using an enzyme-linked instrument at a wavelength of 450 nm. Test within 15 minutes after adding stop solution.

Note:

1. Leave one hole for each experiment as a blank zero-adjusting hole. No reagent is added to this hole, but the substrate solution and 2NH2SO4 are added at the end. Use this hole to adjust the OD value to zero when measuring.

2. To prevent the sample from evaporating, place the reaction plate in a closed box covered with a damp cloth during the test, and add a cover or film to the enzyme label plate.

3. Store unused microplates or reagents at 2-8 ° C. Standard products, working solution A, and working solution B should be configured and used according to the required amount. Do not reuse the diluted standard, test solution A working solution or test solution B working solution.

4. It is recommended to set a double-hole test when testing samples to ensure the accuracy of the test results.

Washing method:

1. Automatic plate washing: If there is an automatic plate washing machine, it should be used in the formal experiment process after being used skillfully.

2. Manual plate washing method: suck up (do not touch the wall) or shake off the liquid in the enzyme plate; place a few layers of absorbent paper on the experimental table, and force the enzyme plate down to pat several times; the recommended washing buffer Inject at least 0.3ml into the hole, soak for 1-2 minutes, and repeat this process several times as needed.

Calculation: Taking the concentration of the standard as the abscissa (logarithmic coordinate) and the OD value as the ordinate (ordinary coordinate), draw a standard curve on semi-logarithmic coordinate paper, and find the corresponding curve from the standard curve according to the OD value of the sample Concentration; multiply by the dilution factor; or calculate the linear regression equation of the standard curve using the concentration of the standard and the OD value, substitute the OD value of the sample into the equation, calculate the sample concentration, and multiply by the dilution factor, which is the actual sample concentration.

Precautions:

1. The washing process is very important, inadequate washing is easy to cause false positives.

2. It is best to control the sampling time within 5 minutes. If there are many specimens, it is recommended to use a volley gun to add samples.

3. Please make a standard curve at the same time of each measurement, it is best to make a complex hole.

4. If the content of the substance to be tested in the specimen is too high, please dilute it and then determine it. When calculating, please multiply by the dilution factor.

5. When preparing standard products and testing solution working fluid, please prepare with corresponding diluent, not to be confused.

6. Please keep the substrate away from light.

Specificity: This kit can detect recombinant or natural human pyruvate dehydrogenase-E1 at the same time, and does not cross-react with other related proteins.

Explanation:

1. Avoid exposing the reagent to strong light during storage and incubation. All reagent bottle caps must be tightly closed to prevent evaporation and contamination. Reagents should be protected from microbial contamination, because the interference of proteolytic enzymes will lead to erroneous results.

2. Aspirate the reagents carefully and strictly observe the given incubation time and temperature. Please note that when drawing samples / standards, enzyme conjugates or substrates, if the time interval between the first well and the last well is too large, it will result in different "pre-incubation" time, which obviously Affect the accuracy and repeatability of the measured value. Moreover, insufficient washing will affect the test results.

3. Preservation of the kit: some reagents are stored at -20 ℃, and some reagents are stored at 2-8 ℃, depending on the label.

4. Salt will be precipitated from the concentrated washing liquid, which can be heated and dissolved in the water bath when diluted.

5. The well of the enzyme-linked plate just opened may contain a little water-like substance. This is a normal phenomenon and will not have any impact on the experimental results.

6. There may be inconsistencies between the Chinese and English instructions. Please refer to the English instructions.

7. All samples should be managed, and the samples and testing devices should be processed according to the prescribed procedures.

8. Validity: 6 months
