Verwendungszweck: The AssayMax™ Human Complement C3d ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for detection of human complement C3d in plasma, serum, urine, milk, saliva, CSF, and cell culture samples. This assay employs a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique that measures human complement C3d in 5 hours. A polyclonal antibody specific for human complement C3d has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microplate with removable strips. Complement C3d in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for complement C3d, 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 C3d 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 C3d Antibody to each well and incubate for 2 hours. Wash the microplate as described above. Add 50 l of Streptavidin-Peroxidase Conjugate to each 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 30 minutes or till the optimal blue color density develops. Gently tap 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 the 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 6 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.

Hintergrund: Complement component 3 (C3) plays a central role in all three complement activation pathways. The C3 precursor contains 1663 amino acids and has a molecular weight of about 180 kDa (1). This protein consists of alpha and beta disulfide-bridged chains. C3 is cleaved by C3 convertase into two activated fragments C3a and C3b. The anaphylatoxin C3a is a vasoactive peptide and a mediator of local inflammatory process (2). The C3b in complex with receptor can bind covalently to pathogen surfaces to promote phagocytosis (3). By the concerted actions of complement regulatory enzyme factor I and cofactors factor H and CD35, C3b is broken down progressively to first inactivated iC3b, then C3c and C3dg, and finally 33 kDa C3d by a non-complement proteinase trimming. Fragment C3d occupies approximately positions 345-610 of the alpha chain. C3d is a ligand for the B lymphocytes cell-surface complement receptor 2 (CR2) and a molecular adjuvant of innate immunity that influences an acquired immune response profoundly (4-5).
