IgD ELISA Kit

Catalog No. ABIN956200

Product Details IgD ELISA Kit

Target: IgD

Reactivity: Human

Detection Method: Colorimetric

Method Type: Sandwich ELISA

Application: ELISA

Purpose: The Human IgD ELISA is a highly sensitive two-site enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) for the quantitative determination of IgD in human biological samples.

Analytical Method: Quantitative

Characteristics: In this assay the IgD present in samples reacts with the anti-IgD antibodies which have been adsorbed to the surface of polystyrene microtiter wells. After the removal of unbound proteins by washing, anti-IgD antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), are added. These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound IgD. Following another washing step, the enzyme bound to the immunosorbent is assayed by the addition of a chromogenic substrate, 3,3',5,5'- tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The quantity of bound enzyme varies directly with the concentration of IgD in the sample tested, thus, the absorbance, at 450 nm, is a measure of the concentration of IgD in the test sample. The quantity of IgD in the test sample can be interpolated from the calibration curve constructed from the calibrators, and corrected for sample dilution.

Components: 1. Diluent Concentrate: One bottle containing 50 mL of a 5X concentrated diluent running buffer.
2. Wash Solution Concentrate: One bottle containing 50 mL of a 20X concentrated wash solution.
3. Enzyme-Antibody Conjugate Concentrate: One vial containing 150 µL of a 100X concentrated affinity-purified anti-human IgD antibody conjugated with HRP in stabilizing buffer.
4. TMB Substrate Solution: One vial containing 12 mL of TMB and hydrogen peroxide in citric acid buffer at pH 3.3.
5. Stop Solution: One vial containing 12 mL of 0.3 M sulfuric acid. WARNING: Avoid contact with skin.
6. Microtiter Plate: Twelve removable eight-well strips in well holder frame. Wells are coated with affinity-purified anti-human IgD.
7. Human IgD Calibrator: One vial containing Human IgD Calibrator.

Application Details

Plate: Pre-coated

Reagent Preparation:

1. Diluent Concentrate: The Diluent solution supplied is a 5X concentrate and must be diluted 1:5 with distilled or de-ionized water.
   2. Wash Solution Concentrate: The Wash Solution supplied is a 20X concentrate and must be diluted 1:20 with distilled or de-ionized water. Crystal formation in the concentrate is not uncommon when storage temperatures are low. Warming of the concentrate to 30-35°C before dilution can dissolve crystals.
   3. Enzyme-Antibody Conjugate Concentrate: Calculate the required amount of working conjugate solution for each microtiter plate test strip by adding 10 µL Enzyme-Antibody Conjugate to 990 µL of 1X Diluent for each test strip to be used for testing. Mix uniformly, but gently. Avoid foaming.
   4. TMB Substrate Solution: Ready to use as supplied.
   5. Stop Solution: Ready to use as supplied.
   6. Microtiter Plate: Ready to use as supplied. Unseal microtiter pouch and remove plate from pouch. Remove all strips and wells that will not be used in the assay and place back in pouch and re-seal along with desiccant.
   7. Human IgD Calibrator: The calibrator is now at a concentration of 68.0 µg/mL. Human IgD Calibrators need to be prepared immediately prior to use. Mix well between each step. Avoid foaming.

Calculation of Results:

1. Subtract the average background value from the test values for each sample.
   2. Using the results observed for the calibrators construct a calibration curve. The appropriate curve fit is that of a four- parameter logistics curve, although a second order polynomial (quadratic) or other curve fits may also be used.
   3. Interpolate test sample values from calibration curve. Correct for sample dilution factor to arrive at IgD concentration in original sample.
   
   1. Reliable and reproducible results will be obtained when the assay procedure is carried out with a complete understanding of the information contained in the package insert instructions and with adherence to good laboratory practice.
   2. Factors that might affect the performance of the assay include proper instrument function, cleanliness of glassware, quality of distilled or de-ionized water, and accuracy of reagent and sample pipettings, washing technique, incubation time or temperature.

Restrictions: For Research Use only
