Application Details

Sample Volume: 15 μL

Assay Time: 3.5 h

Plate: Pre-coated

Reagent Preparation:

1. Inhibin B Calibrators B-F and Inhibin B Controls I & II: Tap and reconstitute Inhibin B Calibrator B-F and Inhibin B Controls I & II each with 1 mL deionized water. Solubilize, mix well and use after reconstitution.
2. Wash Solution: Dilute wash concentrate 25-fold with deionized water. The wash solution is stable for one month at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C) when stored in a tightly sealed bottle.
3. Microtitration Wells: Select the number of coated wells required for the assay. The remaining unused wells should be placed in the resealable pouch with a desiccant. The pouch must be resealed to protect from moisture.
4. Inhibin B Antibody-Biotin Conjugate Solution: The Inhibin B Antibody-Biotin Conjugate Concentrate should be diluted at a ratio of 1 part conjugate to 50 parts of Inhibin B Conjugate Diluent per the number of wells used. If an entire plate is to be used pipet exactly 220 μL of the Concentrate in to 11 mL of the diluent.

Sample Collection:

• Serum is the recommended sample type.
• Sample handling, processing, and storage requirements depend on the brand of blood collection tube that you use. Please reference the manufacturer's instructions for guidance. Each laboratory should determine the acceptability of its own blood collection tubes and serum separation products.
• Samples may be stored at 4 °C if assayed within 24 hours, otherwise samples must be stored at -20 °C or -80 °C to avoid loss of bioactivity and contamination.
• Avoid assaying lipemic, hemolyzed or icteric samples.
• Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of samples.
• For shipping, place specimens in leak proof containers in biohazard specimen bags with appropriate specimen identification and test requisition information in the outside pocket of the biohazard specimen bag. Follow DOT and IATA requirements when shipping specimens.14

Assay Procedure:

Allow all specimens and reagents to reach room temperature (23 ± 2 °C) and mix thoroughly by gentle inversion before use. Calibrators, controls, and unknowns should be assayed in duplicate. NOTE: (i) All intact mouse and rat serum samples should be diluted 1 part in 3 parts (1:4) in Calibrator A/Sample diluent prior to assay. (ii) All serum samples reading higher than the highest calibrator should be diluted in Calibrator A/Sample diluent prior to assay.

1. Label the microtitration strips to be used.
2. Pipette 50 μL of the reconstituted Calibrators, Controls and Unknowns to the appropriate wells.
3. Add 50 μL of the Inhibin B Assay Buffer A to each well using a repeater pipette.
4. Add 50 μL of the Inhibin B Assay Buffer B to each well using a repeater pipette.
5. Incubate the plate, shaking at a fast speed (600-800 rpm) on an orbital microplate shaker, for 2 hours at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C).
6. During the last 20-30 minutes of incubation, prepare the Inhibin B Antibody-Biotin Conjugate Solution by diluting the Inhibin B Biotin Conjugate Concentrate in Inhibin B Conjugate Diluent as described under the Preparation of the Reagents section of this package insert.
7. Aspirate and wash each strip 5 times with Washing Solution (350 μL/per well) using an automatic microplate washer.
8. Add 100 μL of the Antibody-Biotin Conjugate Solution to each well using a repeater pipette.
9. Incubate the plate, shaking at a fast speed (600-800 rpm) on an orbital microplate shaker, for 1 hour at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C).
10. Aspirate and wash each strip 5 times with the Wash Solution (350 μL/per well) using an automatic microplate washer.
11. Add 100 μL of the Streptavidin-Enzyme Conjugate-RTU to each well using a repeater pipette.
12. Incubate the plate, shaking at a fast speed (600-800 rpm) on an orbital microplate shaker, for 30 minutes at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C).
13. Aspirate and wash each strip 5 times with the Wash Solution (350 μL/per well) using an automatic microplate washer.
14. Add 100 μL of the TMB chromogen solution to each well using a precision pipette. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
15. Incubate the wells, shaking at 600-800 rpm on an orbital microplate shaker, for 12-15 min at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C). NOTE: Visually monitor the color development to optimize the incubation time.
16. Add 100 μL of the stopping solution to each well using a precision pipette. Read the absorbance of the solution in the wells within 20 minutes, using a microplate reader set to 450 nm. NOTE: While reading the absorbance of the microtitration well, it is necessary to program the zero calibrator as a ""Blank"".

Calculation of Results:

NOTE: The results in this package insert were calculated by plotting the data on a log vs. log scale using a linear regression curve-fit. Other data reduction methods may give slightly different results.

1. Optimum results can be obtained at incubation temperature of (23 ± 2 °C).
2. Calculate the mean OD for each calibrator, Control, or Unknown.
3. Plot the log of the mean OD readings for each of the Calibrators along the y-axis versus log of the Inhibin B concentrations in pg/mL along the x-axis, using a linear regression curve-fit.
4. Determine the Inhibin B concentrations of the Controls and unknowns from the calibration curve by matching their mean OD readings with the corresponding Inhibin B concentrations.
5. Any sample reading higher than the highest Calibrator should be appropriately diluted with the 0 pg/mL (CAL A) and re-assayed.
6. Any sample reading lower than the analytical sensitivity should be reported as such.
7. Multiply the value by a dilution factor, if required.
