Verwendungszweck: The AssayMax™ Human Complement C1 ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for detection of C1 in human plasma, serum, saliva, urine, milk, and cell culture samples. This assay employs a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique that measures C1 in less than 4 hours. A polyclonal antibody specific for C1 has been pre-coated onto a 96- well microplate with removable strips. C1 in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and a biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for C1, which is recognized by a streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate. All unbound material is washed away and a peroxidase enzyme substrate is added. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Testdurchführung:

Prepare all reagents, standard solutions, and samples as instructed. Bring all reagents to room temperature before use. The assay is performed at room temperature (20-25 °C). Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame and return them immediately to the foil pouch with desiccants inside. Reseal the pouch securely to minimize exposure to water vapor and store in a vacuum desiccator. Add 50 l of Human Complement C1 Standard or sample per well. Cover wells with a sealing tape and incubate for 2 hours. Start the timer after the last addition. Wash five times with 200 l of Wash Buffer manually. Invert the plate each time and decant the contents, hit 4-5 times on absorbent material to completely remove the liquid. If using a machine, wash six times with 300 l of Wash Buffer and then invert the plate, decanting the contents, hit 4-5 times on absorbent material to completely remove the liquid. Add 50 l of Biotinylated Human Complement C1 Antibody to each well and incubate for 1 hour. Wash the microplate as described above. Add 50 l of Streptavidin-Peroxidase Conjugate per well and incubate for 30 minutes. Turn on the microplate reader and set up the program in advance. Wash the microplate as described above. Add 50 l of Chromogen Substrate per well and incubate for 12 minutes or till the optimal blue color density develops. Gently tap the plate to ensure thorough mixing and break the bubbles in the well with pipette tip. Add 50 l of Stop Solution to each well. The color will change from blue to yellow. Read the absorbance on a microplate reader at a wavelength of 450 nm immediately. If wavelength correction is available, subtract readings at 570 nm from those at 450 nm to correct optical imperfections. Otherwise, read the plate at 450 nm only. Please note that some unstable black particles may be generated at high concentration points after stopping the reaction for about 10 minutes, which will reduce the readings.

Ergebnisberechnung:

• Calculate the mean value of the duplicate or triplicate readings for each standard and sample.
• To generate a standard curve, plot the graph using the standard concentrations on the x-axis and the corresponding mean 450 nm absorbance (OD) on the y-axis. The best-fit line can be determined by regression analysis using log-log or four-parameter logistic curve-fit.
• Determine the unknown sample concentration from the standard curve and multiply the value by the dilution factor.

Target: Complement C1

Abstract: Complement C1 Produkte

Hintergrund: Complement component C1 (C1) is a calcium-dependent serine protease complex with an approximate mass of 790 kDa and acts as the first component of the classical complement pathway. C1 is formed from the association of a recognition protein C1q and two catalytic subunits C1r and C1s respectively (1, 2). The globular heads of the C1q bind to the Fc-fragment of IgM or IgG on the surface of a pathogen, resulting in the activation of C1r. The activated C1r is able to activate C1s which in turn activates C2 and C4, leading to the production of the C4b-C2a form of C3-convertase (3, 4).
