PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY
The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an
antibody specific to TGF-β1. Standards or samples are then added to
the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated
antibody preparation specific for TGF-β1 and Avidin conjugated to
Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and
initiate. Then a TMB (3,3,5,5 tetramethyl-benzidine) substrate
solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain TGF-β1,
biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit
a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by
the addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is
measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm ± 2 nm.
The concentration of TGF-β1 in the samples is then determined by
comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
DETECTION RANGE
0.78 ng / ml-50 ng / ml. The standard curve concentrations used for the
ELISA's were 50 ng / ml, 25 ng / ml, 12.5 ng / ml, 6.25 ng / ml, 3.12 ng / ml,
1.56 ng / ml, 0.78 ng / ml.
SPECIFICITY
This assay recognizes porcine TGF-β1. No significant cross-reactivity
or interference was observed.
3
SENSITIVITY
The minimum detectable dose of porcine TGF-β1 is typically less
than 0.2 ng / ml.
The sensitivity of this assay, or Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) was
defined as the lowest protein concentration that could be
differentiated from zero.

optical density range of 0-3 OD or greater at 450nm wavelength is
acceptable for use in absorbance measurement.
REAGENT PREPARATION
Bring all reagents to room temperature before use.
1. Wash Buffer If crystals have formed in the concentrate, warm
up to room temperature and mix gently until the crystals have
completely dissolved. Dilute 20 ml of Wash Buffer Concentrate
into deionized or distilled water to prepare 500 ml of Wash Buffer.
2. Biotin-antibody Centrifuge the vial before opening. Dilute to the
working concentration using Biotin-antibody Diluent (1: 100),
respectively.
5
3. HRP-avidin Centrifuge the vial before opening. Dilute to the
working concentration using HRP-avidin Diluent (1: 100),
respectively.
4. Standard Centrifuge the standard vial at 6000-10000rpm for
30s. Reconstitute the Standard with 1.0 ml of Sample Diluent.
This reconstitution produces a stock solution of 50 ng / ml. Allow
the standard to sit for a minimum of 15 minutes with gentle
agitation prior to making serial dilutions. The undiluted standard
serves as the high standard (50 ng / ml). The Sample Diluent
serves as the zero standard (0 ng / ml). Prepare fresh for each
assay. Use within 4 hours and discard after use.
Precaution: The Stop Solution provided with this kit is an acid solution. Wear eye,

ASSAY PROCEDURE
Bring all reagents and samples to room temperature before use. It is recommended
that all samples, standards, and controls be assayed in duplicate. All the reagents
should be added directly to the liquid level in the well. The pipette should avoid
contacting the inner wall of the well.
1. Add 100μl of Standard, Blank, or Sample per well. Cover with the
adhesive strip. Incubate for 2 hours at 37 ° C.

2. Remove the liquid of each well, don't wash.
3. Add 100μl of Biotin-antibody working solution to each well.
Incubate for 1 hour at 37 ° C. Biotin-antibody working solution
may appear cloudy. Warm up to room temperature and mix gently
until solution appears uniform.
4. Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process three times
for a total of three washes. Wash: Fill each well with Wash Buffer
(200μl) and let it stand for 2 minutes, then remove the liquid by
flicking the plate over a sink. The remaining drops are removed by
patting the plate on a paper towel. Complete removal of liquid at
each step is essential to good performance.
5. Add 100μl of HRP-avidin working solution to each well. Cover the
microtiter plate with a new adhesive strip. Incubate for 1 hour at
37 ° C.
6. Repeat the aspiration and wash five times as step 4.
7. Add 90μl of TMB Substrate to each well. Incubate for 10-30
minutes at 37 ° C. Keeping the plate away from drafts and other
temperature fluctuations in the dark.
8. Add 50μl of Stop Solution to each well when the first four wells
containing the highest concentration of standards develop
obvious blue color. If color change does not appear uniform,
gently tap the plate to ensure thorough mixing.
9. Determine the optical density of each well within 30 minutes,
using a microplate reader set to 450 nm.

CALCULATION OF RESULTS
Using the professional soft "Curve Exert 1.3" to make a standard curve is
recommended, which can be downloaded from our web.
Average the duplicate readings for each standard, control, and
sample and subtract the average zero standard optical density.
Create a standard curve by reducing the data using computer
software capable of generating a four parameter logistic (4-PL)
curve-fit. As an alternative, construct a standard curve by plotting the
mean absorbance for each standard on the x-axis against the
concentration on the y-axis and draw a best fit curve through the
points on the graph. The data may be linearized by plotting the log of
the TGF-β1 concentrations versus the log of the OD and the best fit
line can be determined by regression analysis. This procedure will
produce an adequate but less precise fit of the data. If samples have
been diluted, the concentration read from the standard curve must be
multiplied by the dilution factor.
LIMITATIONS OF THE PROCEDURE
? The kit should not be used beyond the expiration date on the kit
label.
? Do not mix or substitute reagents with those from other lots or
sources.
? It is important that the Standard Diluent selected for the standard
curve be consistent with the samples being assayed.
1 0
? If samples generate values ​​higher than the highest standard,
dilute the samples with the appropriate Standard Diluent and
repeat the assay.
? Any variation in Standard Diluent, operator, pipetting technique,
washing technique, incubation time or temperature, and kit age
can cause variation in binding.
? This assay is designed to eliminate interference by soluble
receptors, binding proteins, and other factors present in biological
samples. Until all factors have been tested in the Immunoassay,
the possibility of interference cannot be excluded.
TECHNICAL HINTS
? Centrifuge vials before opening to collect contents.
? When mixing or reconstituting protein solutions, always avoid
foaming.
? To avoid cross-contamination, change pipette tips between
additions of each standard level, between sample additions, and
between reagent additions. Also, use separate reservoirs for each
reagent.
? When using an automated plate washer, adding a 30 second soak
period following the addition of wash buffer, and / or rotating the
plate 180 degrees between wash steps may improve assay
precision.
1 1
? To ensure accurate results, proper adhesion of plate sealers
during incubation steps is necessary.
? Substrate Solution should remain colorless or light blue until
added to the plate. Keep Substrate Solution protected from light.
Substrate Solution should change from colorless or light blue to
gradations of blue.
? Stop Solution should be added to the plate in the same order as
the Substrate Solution. The color developed in the wells will turn
from blue to yellow upon addition of the Stop Solution. Wells that
are green in color indicate that the Stop Solution has not mixed
thoroughly with the Substrate Solution.
