Background of CCL7/MCP-3/MARC
Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 7 (CCL7) is a small cytokine known as a chemokine that was previously called monocyte-specific chemokine 3 (MCP3). It belongs to the C-C chemokine family. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, mapped the MCP3 gene to chromosome 17q11.2-q12. MCP3 was identified as a physiologic substrate of gelatinase A. Cleaved MCP3 binds to CC-chemokine receptors-1, -2, and -3, but no longer induces calcium fluxes or promotes chemotaxis, and instead acts as a general chemokine antagonist that dampens inflammation, suggested that matrix metalloproteinases are both effectors and regulators of the inflammatory response.

6 Customer Q&As for Mouse CCL7/MCP-3 ELISA Kit PicoKine®
Question
Q: which procedure should I follow in order to thaw whole blood sample for CCL7 ELISA after freezing?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-02-15
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 CCL7 for a later time, you should let the blood clot in glass tubes and separate the serum to freeze for later analysis.

Question
Q: What is the optimal O.D. value for CCL7 ELISA kit? I used your CCL7 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 CCL7 even though the O.D. values are not very high?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-02-21
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. what you should focus on is whether your sample O.D. values are statistically significantly higher than your blank values. in the above 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. 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 CCL7 ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 1pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of CCL7 that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 1pg/ml.

Question
Q: if the enzyme conjugated CCL7 antibodies are mixed with the substrate, will that convert the substrate into the enzymatic reaction product? Or the enzyme function is only activated when the antibody is attached with the CCL7 antigen?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-02-15
Answer
A: The enzyme is always active. Avoid contaminating the substrate with enzyme prior to the incubation otherwise it compromises the assay with false positive signal.

Question
Q: Are Boster Bio recombinant proteins and antibodies sterile?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2017-08-02
Answer
A: although the vials are bottled using aseptic techniques, heat-treated vials, and sterile stock solutions, they are not considered or guaranteed to be sterile. If sterile material is a must for an experiment, the material can be filtered through a 0.2 micron filter designed for use with biological fluids.

Question
Q: can you recommend the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of CCL7 in Mouse cell lysates? I am trying to measure a few analytes and it requires 100ul of diluted samples for each well. We have low serum volumes so we like to dilute as much as possible.
L. Sunder
Verified customer
Asked: 2014-11-24
Answer
A: unable to know 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 CCL7 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.
