Do you have information regarding the normal values detectable with your Platinum ELISA Kit?

You can find expected "normal levels" listed in the Platinum ELISA Kit manual under "Expected Values". Please be aware that these normal values were obtained in our laboratories with a limited number of samples. We strongly suggest that each laboratory perform studies in order to establish normal range for their sample populations.

What if it does not look like the supplied reagent volume is sufficient for running the Platinum ELISA?

In case of small reagent volumes, please spin down vial before use to make sure to all contents are collected in the bottom of the tube.

I want to collect my tissue culture supernatant daily for a time-course study and run all of my samples at once by ELISA. How should I store my supernatants for use with the eBioscience Platinum ELISA kits?

The supernatants can be harvested and stored -20 degrees C. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. We recommend that you briefly centrifuge samples after collection to pellet any dead/floating cells remaining in the supernatant. Transfer to new tube for storage.

What concentrations should I use for my recombinant standard when using the eBioscience Platinum ELISA kits?

Each Ready-Set-Go! ELISA Set comes with its own Certificate of Analysis (CofA). The directions on the CofA should be strictly followed to ensure performance of the reagents. The CofA gives specific instructions on how to dilute each component of your lot specific set. The instructions on the CofA should not be deviated from in order to ensure accurate results.
