Background of SPINK1

Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 1, also called TATI or PSTI, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPINK1 gene. It is mapped to 5q32. SPINK1 gene contains 4 exons spanning approximately 7.5 kb. It was initially detected in urine of patients with ovarian cancer. This peptide is also produced by the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract where it may protect the mucosal cells from proteolytic breakdown. The SPINK1 gene encodes pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor, which is secreted from pancreatic acinar cells into pancreatic juice. Its physiologic role was thought to be the prevention of trypsin-catalyzed premature activation of zymogens within the pancreas and the pancreatic duct. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary pancreatitis and tropical calcific pancreatitis.

Question

Q: how can I thaw whole blood sample for SPINK1 ELISA after freezing?

P. King

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-12-12

Answer

A: we do not recommend freezing 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 SPINK1 for a later time, you should let the blood clot in glass tubes and separate the serum to freeze for later analysis.

Question

Q: how much samples can be assayed in a Picokine® ELISA Kit?

S. Brown

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-02-22

Answer

A: The Picokine® ELISA Kits will generally run a 7-point standard curve, non-specific binding wells, and 39 samples in duplicate. this may vary slightly by kit so please refer to each datasheet for details.

Question

Q: can I use citrate plasma as samples in Human SPINK1 Picokine® ELISA Kit (Catalog # EK1241)?

W. Baker

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-02-13

Answer

A: Chelating agents such as EDTA, Heparin and Citrate can irreversibly bind metal ions from the functional domain of SPINK1 causing disruption of its protein structure. SPINK1 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 SPINK1 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.

Question

Q: we need your recommendation regarding the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of SPINK1 in Human plasma? I am trying to measure a few parameters and it requires 100ul of diluted samples for each well. We have low serum quantitys so we like to dilute as much as possible.

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-10-31

Answer

A: without having an understanding 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 SPINK1 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

Question

Q: What is the optimal O.D. value for SPINK1 ELISA kit? I performed your SPINK1 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 SPINK1 even though the O.D. values are not very high?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-01-16

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 the example mentioned, 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 changeing 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 SPINK1 ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 10pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of SPINK1 that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 10pg/ml.

Question

Q: how long can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for quantification SPINK1 using the EK1241 Human SPINK1 Picokine® ELISA Kit?

L. Thompson

Verified customer

Asked: 2016-01-26

Answer

A: Boster Bio does not evaluate sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may alter the stabilityof samples. It is recommend to assay sample on-stat 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.
