Alphalisa immunoassay kit

Manufactured by PerkinElmer
Sourced in United States

The AlphaLISA immunoassay kit is a homogeneous bead-based assay technology developed by PerkinElmer. It is designed to detect and quantify analytes in biological samples, such as proteins, peptides, and small molecules. The assay relies on the formation of a complex between the analyte and specific antibodies or binding proteins, which triggers a luminescent signal that can be measured using a compatible microplate reader.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To perform the HA assay, 5,000 hyalocytes/well were seeded in 48-well plates containing 0.5 ml IMDM (+ 10% FBS) and stimulated for 6 days with different agents: 10 ng/ml of bFGF, 5 ng/ml of TGF-β, 10 ng/ml of PDGF-BB, 200 µg/ml of AsA, 1 mg/ml of DEX, and 5 µM of H2O2. HA levels were detected in 10 µl of primary culture supernatant using the hyaluronic acid (human) AlphaLISA® immunoassay kit (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA). Two different types of cells, lung adenocarcinoma (A549) cells (ATCC, LGC Standards S.r.l., Milan, Italy), were used for comparison purposes based on their different HA production in 6 days [21 (link),22 (link)]. HA levels were measured with an EnVision plate reader (PerkinElmer), and the values are expressed as ng HA/ng cell protein.

Investigating T Cell Activation Modulation

Human blood was purchased from Research Blood Components (Boston, MA). Human PBMC were isolated by density centrifugation and stimulated with SEA peptide (Toxin Technology), which mediates interactions between MHC class II molecules and CD86 on APCs and the TCR and CD28 on T cells, respectively [33 (link), 34 (link)]. AGEN1884 or AGEN2041 were added alone or in combination with anti-PD-1 (nivolumab, pembrolizumab or AGEN2034), LAG-3 (clone 25F7), CD137 (clone 10C7) or an isotype control antibody (clone 4Ab-028). After 5 days, co-culture supernatants were collected and interleukin-2 (IL-2) was measured as an endpoint of enhanced T cell responsiveness using an AlphaLISA® immunoassay kit (Perkin-Elmer), as per manufacturer’s instructions.

Quantifying Vitreous Hyaluronic Acid

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HA assay was performed in 20 μl of vitreous samples using the human hyaluronic acid AlphaLISA® immunoassay kit according to the manufacturer's instructions (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Massachusetts, United States). The assay shows no cross-reactivity with human collagen Type I, Type II, Type III, and fibronectin. Absorbance was measured at 615 nm with the EnSight instrument (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Massachusetts, United States). Kaleido version 2.0.3058.126 and GraphPad Prism (5.01) software were used for data acquisition and elaboration. HA levels were expressed as ng HA/μl of vitreous samples.

Cytokine titres were determined using an AlphaLISA Immunoassay kit (Perkin Elmer) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The sum of cytokines detected in the upper and lower compartments of the transwell is shown for each of the monocultured samples, while cytokine levels were kept separated for the upper and lower compartment for the co‐cultured samples.

INS-1 832/13 cells or INS-1 832/13 stably expressing GFP-hSurf4 cells were transfected twice with RNAi oligonucleotides as described above and treated with modified Krebs–Ringer buffer (KRB; containing 120 mM NaCl, 24 mM NaHCO3, 1 mM MgCl2, 2 mM CaCl2, and 15 mM HEPES at pH 7.4 and supplemented with 0.1% BSA and 2.8 mM glucose) for 2 h, followed by incubation with the same KRB buffer (low glucose) or that containing 25 mM glucose (high glucose) for 2 h. The amount of secreted insulin was measured using an AlphaLISA immunoassay kit (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

AlphaLISA Immunoassay for Cytokine Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human CXCL10 (AL259C), human CXCL9 (AL280C), human IL-8 (AL224C) and human IL-6 (AL223C) AlphaLISA immunoassay kits were purchased from Perkin Elmer and performed according to the manufacturer's protocol. For cell culture supernatant samples, the assay buffer contained 25 μM HEPES, 50 mM NaCl, 10 mM sodium EDTA, 2 mg/mL dextran (Mw. 500,000), 0.5% casein and 0.05% Tween-20, adjusted to pH 7.4. For plasma samples, the assay buffer also contained 0.1% bovine gamma globulin (G-5009, Sigma Aldrich) and 0.2 μg/mL HBR1 (3KC533, Scantibodies). Standards, biotinylated detection antibodies, and acceptor bead solutions were prepared in assay buffer. The assays were performed in 384-well white polypropylene conical-bottom microplates (4307, Thermo Scientific). Two microliters of standards, cell culture supernatant or plasma sample were incubated with 10 μg/mL acceptor beads and 1 nM biotinylated detection antibody for 1 h at room temperature. Streptavidin-coated donor beads (40 μg/mL) were added to the mixture and incubated for an additional 30 min. The plate was read on a PHERAstar FS plate reader (BMG LabTech) where the bead complex was excited at 680 nm for 1 s and emission signals were collected at 615 nm for 1 s after a 40-millisecond delay.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
