LSY-10071 Flunixin ELISA test Kit 96 wells/kit for milk and pork,beef detection

Flunixin ELISA test Kit

Catalog No. LSY-10071

1. Principle

This test kit is based on the indirect competitive enzyme immunoassay. The coupling antigen is pre-coated on the micro-well stripes. The Flunixin residues in the sample and the coupling antigen pre-coated on the micro-well stripes compete for the anti-Flunixin antibody. After the addition of the enzyme conjugate, the TMB substrate is added for coloration. The optical density (OD) value of the sample has a negative correlation with the Flunixin in it. This value is compared to the standard curve and the Flunixin concentration is subsequently obtained.

6. ELISA procedures

6.1 Instructions

1. Bring all reagents and micro-well strips to the room temperature (20-25 ℃) before use;
2. Return all reagents to 2-8 ℃ immediately after use;
3. The reproducibility of the ELISA analysis, to a large degree, depends on the consistency of plate washing. The correct operation of plate washing is the key point in ELISA the procedures;
4. For the incubation at constant temperatures, all the samples and reagents must avoid light exposure, and each microplate should be sealed by the cover membrane.

6.2 Operation procedures

1. Take out the kit from the refrigerated environment. Take out all the necessary reagents from the kit and place at the room temperature (20-25 ℃) for at least 30 min. Note that each reagent must be shaken to mix evenly before use.
2. Take the required micro-well strips and plate frames. Re-sealed the unused microplate, store at 2-8℃, not frozen.
3. Solution preparation: dilute 15mL of the 20× concentrated washing buffer with the deionized water at 1:19 (1 part of 20× concentrated washing buffer + 19 parts of deionized water) for use, or prepare as quantity needed.
4. Numbering: number the micro-wells according to samples and standard solution; each sample and standard solution should be performed in duplicate, record their positions.
5. Add 50µL of the sample or standard solution to separate duplicate wells; Then add 50µL enzyme conjugate, then add 50µL of the antibody working solution into each well. Mix gently by shaking the plate manually, seal the microplate with the cover membrane, and incubate at 25 ℃ for 30min.
6. Pour the liquid, wash the microplate with the washing buffer at 250µL/well for 4-5 times. Each time soak the well with the washing buffer for 15-30 sec, flap to dry with absorbent paper (if there are the bubbles after flapping, cut them with the clean tips).
7. Coloration: add 50µL of the substrate A and then 50µL of the substrate B into each well. Mix gently by shaking the plate manually, and incubate at 25 ℃ for 15 min at dark for coloration.
8. Determination: add 50µL of the stop solution into each well. Mix gently by shaking the plate manually. Set the wavelength of microplate reader at 450nm to determine the OD value. (recommend to read the OD value at the dual-wavelength 450/630nm within 5 min).

7. Result judgment

There are two methods to judge the results; the first one is the rough judgment, while the second is the quantitative determination. Note that the OD value of the sample has a negative correlation with the content of Flunixin.

7.1 Qualitative determination

The concentration range (ng/mL) can be obtained from the comparison the average OD value of the sample with that of the standard solution. Assuming that the OD value of the sampleⅠ is 0.3, and that of the sampleⅡ is 1.0, while those of the standard solutions are as the followings: 2.243 for 0ppb, 1.816 for 0.05ppb, 1.415 for 0.15ppb, 0.74 for 0.45ppb, 0.313 for 1.35ppb and 0.155 for 4.05ppb, accordingly the concentration range of the sampleⅠis 1.35 to 4.05ppb, and that of the sampleⅡ is 0.15 to 0.45ppb. Multiplying by its corresponding dilution factor is the actual concentration of Flunixin in the sample.

7.2 Quantitative determination

The mean values of the absorbance values obtained for the average OD value (B) of the sample and the standard solution divided by the OD value (B₀) of the first standard solution (0 standard) and subsequently multiplied by 100%, that is,

B—the average OD value of the sample or the standard solution

B₀—the average OD value of the 0 ng/mL standard solution

Draw the standard curve with the absorption percentages of the standard solution and the semilogarithm values of the Flunixin standard solution (ng/mL) as Y- and X-axis, respectively. Read the corresponding concentration of the sample from the standard curve by incorporating its absorption percentage into the standard curve. The resulting value is subsequently multiplied by the corresponding dilution fold, thus finally obtaining the Flunixin concentration in the sample.

8. Precautions

1. The room temperature below 25 ℃ or the temperature of the reagents and the samples being not returned to the room temperature (20-25 ℃) will lead to a lower standard OD value.
2. Dryness of the microplate in the washing process will be accompanied by the situations including the non-linear standard curves and the undesirable reproducibility.
3. Mix every reagent and reaction mixture evenly and wash the microplate thoroughly, otherwise there will be the undesirable reproducibility.
4. The stop solution is the 2 M sulfuric acid solution, avoid contacting with the skin;
5. Put the unused microplate into an auto-sealing bag to re-seal it. The standard substance and the colorless color former is light sensitive, and thus they cannot be directly exposed to the light.
6. Do not use the kit exceeding its expiry date. The use of diluted or adulterated reagents from the kits will lead to the changes in the sensitivity and the detecting OD values. Do not exchange the reagents from the kits of different lot numbers to use.
7. Discard the coloration solution with any color that indicates the degeneration of this solution. The detecting value of the standard solution 1 (0 ppb) of less than 0.5 indicates its degeneration.
8. The optimum reaction temperature is 25 ℃, If too high or too low temperatures will result in the changes in the detecting sensitivity and OD values.

9. Storage and expiry date

Expiry date: 12 months; date of production is on the box.
