Quantikine elisa human tgfβ1 kit

Manufactured by R&D Systems
Sourced in United States

The Quantikine ELISA Human TGFβ1 kit is a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay designed to measure human transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) levels in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It utilizes a microplate pre-coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for TGFβ1.

Quantitative Analysis of TGFβ1 Secretion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The TGFβ1 concentration in the supernatant was measured with a Quantikine ELISA Human TGFβ1 kit (R&D Systems). A2780 cells were first subjected to siRNA-mediated gene silencing treatment for 48 h. A total of 6×105 cells were suspended in 1.5 ml of culture medium, added to a single well of a six‐well ultralow-attachment plate, and then cultured for 72 h. The culture medium was not changed during the culture period. Then, the culture medium was collected in a 1.5 ml conical tube and centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 15 minutes. The concentration of TGFβ1 in the culture medium was determined using a human TGFβ1 Quantikine ELISA kit (R&D Systems). HCl and NaOH/HEPES were used to convert latent TGFβ1 into the activated form.

Quantification of TGF-β1 in Mouse Tissues

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For ELISA analysis, tissue was collected after perfusion with phosphate buffer solution and flash frozen in cold isopropyl alcohol. Mouse serum is collected by clotted blood without any anticoagulant for 30 min followed by centrifugation at 1500 g for 10 min at 4°C. Serum is collected from the supernatant and frozen at −80C. The tissue was sectioned with a cryostat to punch 2mm punches of tissue. Tissue was placed in RIPA buffer then homogenized using sonication at 30% amplitude, for 3 second pulses with 2 second pauses. BCA method was used to determine total protein concentration in the samples and Quantikine ELISA Human TGF-β1 kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) was used to analyze TGF-β1 ligand levels following the instruction from the manufacturer.

Plasma levels of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) and homovanillic acid (HVA) were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was measured using the Quantikine ELISA human BDNF kit (R&D Systems, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA), with a minimum detectable concentration of 20 pg/mL. TGF-β1 was assessed using the Quantikine ELISA human TGF-β1 kit (R&D Systems, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA), with a minimum detectable concentration of 0.50 pg/mL.

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.
