Background of CXCL13/BLC/BCA-1

C-X-C motif chemokine 13 (CXCL13), also known as B lymphocyte chemoattractant (BLC), is a protein that in humans is encoded by theCXCL13 gene. CXCL13 is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family, and it was located on sequence maps to 4q21, near the genes encoding most CXC chemokines. In T-lymphocytes, CXCL13 expression is thought to reflect a germinal center origin of the T-cell. Hence, expression of CXCL13 in T-cell lymphomas, such as Angioimmunoblastic T-cell Lymphoma, is thought to reflect a germinal center origin of the neoplastic T-cells.

Asked: 2020-04-10

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 required for an experiment, the material can be filtered through a 0.2 micron filter designed for use with biological fluids.

Question

Q: how are cell lysates prepared for use in Picokine® ELISA kits?

T. Lewis

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-02-11

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 impact immunoreactivity, so if lysate is not a validated sample type, care must be taken in sample preparation and validation.

Question

Q: if the enzyme conjugated CXCL13 antibodies are mixed with the substrate, will that change the substrate into the enzymatic reaction product? Or the enzyme function is only activated when the antibody is attached with the CXCL13 antigen?

R. Gonzalez

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-07-30

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: how long can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for measuring CXCL13 using the EK0740 Mouse CXCL13 Picokine® ELISA Kit?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-07-01

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 on priority basis collection when possible, or aliquot into single use volumes and store samples frozen. avoid repetitive freeze-thaw cycles with the stored samples in order to limit protein degradation.

Question

Q: we need your recommendation regarding the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of CXCL13 in Mouse 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 volumes so we like to dilute as much as possible.

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2017-12-06

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 CXCL13 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: which procedure should I follow in order to thaw whole blood sample for CXCL13 ELISA after freezing?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2017-12-05

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 CXCL13 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 CXCL13 ELISA kit? I used your CXCL13 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 CXCL13 even though the O.D. values are not very high?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2017-03-14

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. 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 CXCL13 ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 10pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of CXCL13 that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 10pg/ml.

Question

Q: can I use citrate plasma as samples in Mouse CXCL13 Picokine® ELISA Kit (Catalog # EK0740)?

B. Hall

Verified customer

Asked: 2015-03-15

Answer

A: Chelating agents such as EDTA, Heparin and Citrate can attach metal ions from the functional domain of CXCL13 causing degradation of its protein structure. CXCL13 may be denatured as a result and may compromise the assay's measurements. The chilating sites could also be too close to the epitopes a must for detection and block the antigen antibody reaction. We have tested the CXCL13 ELISA, treating samples with various anticoagulants and decided that heparin or EDTA can be used for treatment of blood/plasma samples. Do not use other anticoagulents when collecting samples.
