FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY. NOT FOR USE IN DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES.
Rat PDK3 ELISA Kit instruction
Intended use
This PDK3 ELISA kit is intended Laboratory for Research use only and is
not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.The Stop Solution
changes the color from blue to yellow and the intensity of the color is
measured at 450 nm using a spectrophotometer. In order to measure the
concentration of PDK3 in the sample, this PDK3 ELISA Kit includes a set
of calibration standards. The calibration standards are assayed at the
same time as the samples and allow the operator to produce a standard
curve of Optical Density versus PDK3 concentration. The concentration of
PDK3 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the
samples to the standard curve.
Sample collection and storages
Serum - Use a serum separator tube and allow samples to clot for 30
minutes before centrifugation for 10 minutes at approximately 3000×g.
Remove serum and assay immediately or aliquot and store samples at
-20℃or -80℃.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Plasma - Collect plasma using EDTA or heparin as an anticoagulant.
Centrifuge samples for 30 minutes at 3000×g at 2-8℃within 30 minutes of
collection. Store samples at -20℃or -80℃. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw
cycles.
Cell culture supernates and other biological fluids - Remove
particulates by centrifugation and assay immediately or aliquot and
store samples at -20℃or -80℃. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Note: The samples shoule be centrifugated dequately and no hemolysis or
granule was allowed.
Materials required but not supplied
- Standard microplate reader(450nm).
- Precision pipettes and Disposable pipette tips.
- 37 ℃incubator.
Precautions
- Do not substitute reagents from one kit to another. Standard,
conjugate and microplates are matched for optimal performance. Use only
the reagents supplied by manufacturer.
- Do not remove microplate from the storage bag until needed. Unused
strips should be stored at 2-8°C in their pouch with the desiccant
provided.
- Mix all reagents before using.
Remove all kit reagents from refrigerator and allow them to reach room
temperature ( 20-25°C).

Assay procedure
- Prepare all reagents before starting assay procedure. It is
recommended that all Standards and Samples be added in duplicate to the
Microelisa Stripplate.
- Add standard: Set Standard wells, testing sample wells. Add standard
50μl to standard well.
- Add Sample: Add testing sample 10μl then add 40μl of Sample Diluent
to testing sample wel.
- Add 100μl of HRP-conjugate reagent to each well, cover with an
adhesive strip and incubate for 60 minutes at 37°C.
- Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process four times for a
total of five washes. Wash by filling each well with Wash Solution
(400μl) using a squirt bottle, manifold dispenser or autowasher.
Complete removal of liquid at each step is essential to good
performance. After the last wash, remove
any remaining Wash Solution by aspirating or decanting. Invert the plate
and blot it against clean paper towels.
- Add chromogen solution A 50μl and chromogen solution B 50μl to each
well. Gently mix and incubate for 15 minutes at 37°C. Protect from
light.
- Add 50μl Stop Solution to each well. The color in the wells should
change from blue to yellow. If the color in the wells is green or the
color change does not appear uniform, gently tap the plate to ensure
thorough mixing.
8 Read the Optical Density (O.D.) at 450 nm using a microtiter plate
reader within 15 minutes.
Calculation of results
- This standard curve is used to determine the amount in an unknown
sample. The standard curve is generated by plotting the average O.D.
(450 nm) obtained for each of the six standard concentrations on the
vertical (Y) axis versus the corresponding concentration on the
horizontal (X) axis.
- First, calculate the mean O.D. value for each standard and sample.
All O.D. values, are subtracted by the mean value of the zero standard
before result interpretation. Construct the standard curve using graph
paper or statistical software.
- To determine the amount in each sample, first locate the O.D. value
on the Y-axis and extend a horizontal line to the standard curve. At the
point of intersection, draw a vertical line to the X-axis and read the
corresponding concentration.
- Any variation in operator, pipetting and washing technique,
incubation time or temperature, and kit age can cause variation in
result. Each user should obtain their own standard curve.
- The sensitivity by this assay is 0.1 ng/mL.
- Standard curve.
