6 Customer Q&As for Human CTRP9 ELISA Kit PicoKine®
Question
Q: What is the optimal O.D. value for CTRP9 ELISA kit? I used your CTRP9 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. can I consider these samples contain CTRP9 even though the O.D. values are not very high?
B. Parker
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-06-02
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 proportion to your positive controls. typically, 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 CTRP9 ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 10pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of CTRP9 that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 10pg/ml.

Question
Q: we need your suggestion regarding the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of CTRP9 in Human serum? I am trying to measure a few analytes and it requires 100ul of diluted samples for each well. We have limited sample quantitys so we like to dilute as much as possible.
P. Edwards
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-04-10
Answer
A: without knowing 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 CTRP9 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: how to thaw whole blood sample for CTRP9 ELISA after freezing?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-08-11
Answer
A: do not freeze and thaw whole blood. erythrocytes are fragile and, if frozen and thawed, will undergo hemolysis rendering the samples useless. To keep your blood samples to test CTRP9 for a later time, you should let the blood clot in glass tubes and collect the serum to freeze for later use.

Question
Q: what is the protocol regarding preparation of cell lysates prepared for use in Picokine® ELISA kits?
P. Phillips
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-02-05
Answer
A: in those Picokine® ELISAs where cell or tissue lysate is a validated sample type, sample preparation instructions for lysate are present in the product insert. Components in lysate and lysis buffer can effect immunoreactivity, so if lysate is not a validated sample type, care must be taken in sample preparation and validation.

Question
Q: is it okay to use EDTA plasma as samples in Human CTRP9 Picokine® ELISA Kit (Catalog # EK1881)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2015-02-07
Answer
A: Chelating agents such as EDTA, Heparin and Citrate can sequester metal ions from the functional domain of CTRP9 causing disruption of its protein structure. CTRP9 may be denatured as a result and may compromise the assay's measurements. The chilating sites could also be too close to the epitopes needed for detection and block the antigen antibody reaction. We have tested the CTRP9 ELISA, treating samples with various anticoagulants and decided that heparin can be used for treatment of blood/plasma samples. Do not use other anticoagulents when collecting samples.
