Background of ANGPTL4
Angiopoietin-related protein 4 (Angptl4) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ANGPTL4 gene. This gene is a member of the angiopoietin/angiopoietin-like gene family and encodes a glycosylated, secreted protein with a fibrinogen C-terminal domain. This gene is induced under hypoxic conditions in endothelial cells and is the target of peroxisome proliferation activators. By radiation hybrid analysis, Angptl4 gene is mapped to 19p13.3. ANGPTL4 contributed to tumor growth and protected cells from anoikis, a form of programmed cell death induced when contact-dependent cells detach from the surrounding tissue matrix.

Question
Q: can you suggest the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of ANGPTL4 in Human serum? I am trying to measure a a number of analytes and it requires 100ul of diluted samples for each well. We have low serum quantitys so we like to dilute as much as possible.

Asked: 2020-06-19
Answer
A: having little idea about the physiological or pathological context of your samples we cannot recommend a dilution ratio without performing a pilot test with your samples. Here is how you can perform a pilot study on your own: perform a serial dilution of your samples on the ANGPTL4 ELISA kit to make sure you have a linear ascending curve followed by a plateau, which signifies the samples saturating the detection limit of the kit. Then you can pick the dilution ratios from samples in the linear part of the curve as your experimental dilution ratio.
If you are interested in using our ELISA service, you can also send us your sample and we will take care of everything for you. You can check our service details here: bosterbio.com/services/assay-services/elisa-testing-service
Since you mentioned you have limited samples, our cost effective multiplex ELISA service would fit perfectly for your needs, where we can generate dozens of data points using as little as 25ul sample volume. Information on this service is also in the above link.

Question
Q: What is the optimal O.D. value for ANGPTL4 ELISA kit? I used your ANGPTL4 ELISA on serum samples. For my positive control, I received an O.D. value of 0.826, while my negative control received a value of 0.136. I obtained both of these controls from the ELISA kit, where your kit's typical data shows O.D. values much higher than my positive control and your background is lower. My samples O.D. values are around 0.225 and the highest is only 0.357. is it safe to say these samples contain ANGPTL4 even though the O.D. values are not very high?

Asked: 2019-08-13
Answer
A: The absolute O.D. values may change according to incubation time. The more you incubate the higher the O.D. values are going to be. an important assessment should be is whether your sample O.D. values are statistically significantly higher than your blank values. in your example, you could extend your development time in the substrate incubation step to obtain higher O.D. values, as long as your negative controls' O.D. values are not increasing faster in relation to your positive controls. normally, a sample with O.D. value 2 standard deviations higher than your negative controls can be considered positive. We calculate the sensitivity of this ELISA kit by converting cutoff O.D. value, calculated as the average of 20 negative controls plus 2 standard deviations of the 20 negative controls, into a concentration. in other words, when we claim this ANGPTL4 ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 20pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of ANGPTL4 that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 20pg/ml.

Question
Q: how long can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for analysis ANGPTL4 using the EK0960 Human ANGPTL4 Picokine® ELISA Kit?
Verified Customer

Asked: 2018-04-07
Answer
A: Boster Bio does not assess sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may change the stabilityof samples. It is recommend to assay sample immediately after collection when possible, or aliquot into single use volumes and store samples frozen. limit repetitive freeze-thaw cycles with the stored samples to avoid protein degradation.
