INTRODUCTION

 

Thyroxine,   or  3,5,3’,5’-tetra-iodothyronine   (often  abbreviated  as

 

T4), a form of thyroid hormones is the major hormone secreted

 

by    the    follicular  cells   of   the   thyroid    gland.    Thyroxine      is

 

synthesized       via  the   iodination    and    covalent    bonding     of  the

 

phenyl   portions  of tyrosine residues found in  an  initial  peptide,

 

thyroglobulin,     which    is  secreted    into   thyroid   granules.    These

 

iodinated   diphenyl   compounds   are   cleaved   from   their   peptide

 

backbone upon being stimulated by thyroid stimulating hormone.

 

More in the T3 and T4 section of thyroid.

 

T4 is transported in blood, with 99.95% of the secreted T4 being

 

protein   bound,   principally   to   thyroxine-binding   globulin   (TBG),

 

and, to a lesser extent, to transthyretin and serum albumin. T4 is

 

involved   in   controlling   the   rate   of   metabolic   processes   in   the

 

body   and   influencing   physical   development.   Administration   of

 

thyroxine      has    been     shown      to   significantly     increase    the

 

concentration of nerve growth factor in the brains of adult mice.

 

Thyroxine is a prohormone and a reservoir for the active thyroid

 

hormone   triiodothyronine   (T3)   which   is   about   four   times   more

 

                                        2


----------------------- Page 3-----------------------

potent. T4 is converted in the tissues by deiodinases, including

 

thyroid hormone iodine peroxidase (TPO), to T3. The "D" isomer

 

is called "Dextrothyroxine" and is used as a lipid modifying agent.

 

The half-life of thyroxine once released into the blood circulatory

 

system is about 1 week.

 

PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY

 

This     assay      employs      the    competitive      inhibition    enzyme

 

immunoassay   technique.   A   antibody   specific   to   T4   has   been

 

pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards or samples are added

 

to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with biotin-conjugated T4

 

and     incubated.    A   competitive     inhibition  reaction    is  launched

 

between   T4   (Standards   or   samples)   and   Biotin-conjugated   T4

 

with the pre-coated antibody specific for T4. The more amount of

 

T4 in samples, the less antibody bound by Biotin-conjugated T4.

 

Then     Avidin   conjugated   to   Horseradish   Peroxidase          (HRP)    is

 

added   to   each   microplate   well   and   incubated.   The   substrate

 

solutions   are   added   to   the   wells,   respectively.   And   the   color

 

develops   in   opposite   to   the   amount   of   T4   in   the   sample.   The

 

color   development   is   stopped   and   the   intensity   of   the   color   is

 

measured.

STORAGE

 

1.   Unopened   test   kits   should   be   stored   at   2-8°C   upon   receipt

 

    and the microtiter plate should be kept in a sealed bag with

 

    desiccants to minimize exposure to damp air. The test kit may

 

    be used throughout the expiration date of the kit. Refer to the

 

    package label for the expiration date.

 

2.   Opened   test   kits   will   remain   stable   until   the   expiring   date

 

    shown, provided it is stored as prescribed above.

 

3.   A  microtiter   plate  reader   with   a   bandwidth   of   10  nm  or less

 

    and an optical density range of 0-3 OD or greater at 450nm

 

   wavelength         is   acceptable       for    use     in    absorbance

 

    measurement.

 

TECHNICAL HINTS

 

1.   Bring all reagents and plate to room temperature for at least

 

    30 minutes before use. Unused wells need store at 2-8℃and

 

    avoid sunlight.

 

2.    Wash Buffer        If crystals have formed in the concentrate,

 

   warm to room temperature and mix gently until the crystals

 

    have completely dissolved. Dilute 15 ml of Wash Buffer

 

    Concentrate into deionized or distilled water to prepare 300 ml

 

    of Wash Buffer.

 

                                      5


----------------------- Page 6-----------------------

3.   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.

 

4.   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.

 

5.   Substrate Solution should remain colorless until added to the

 

    plate. Keep Substrate Solution protected from light. Substrate

 

    Solution should change from colorless to gradations of blue.

 

6.   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.

 

Precaution: The Stop Solution provided with this kit is an acid solution. Wear

 

           eye, hand, face, and clothing protection when using this material.

SAMPLE COLLECTION AND STORAGE

 

    Serum       Use     a  serum     separator    tube   (SST)    and    allow

 

    samples   to   clot   for   30   minutes   before   centrifugation   for   15

 

    minutes at 1000 x g. Remove serum and assay immediately

 

    or   aliquot   and   store   samples     at  -20°  C.  Avoid    repea ted

 

    freeze-thaw cycles.

 

    Plasma      Collect plasma using citrate, EDTA, or heparin as

 

    an anticoagulant. Centrifuge for 15 minutes at 1000 x g within

 

    30   minutes   of   collection.   Assay   immediately   or   aliquot   and

 

    store samples at -20° C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw  cycles.

 

Note: Grossly hemolyzed samples are not suitable for use in this assay.

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.

 

  1.   Set a Blank well without any solution. Add 50μl of Standard

 

      or Sample per well. Standard need test in duplicate.

 

  2.   Add 50μl of Conjugate to each well (not to Blank well), Mix

 

      well and then incubate for 1 hour at 37°C.

 

  3.   Fill   each   well   with   Wash   Buffer   (about   200μl),  stay  for   10

 

      seconds   and   Spinning.   Repeat   the   process   for   a   total   of

 

      three   washes.   Complete   removal   of   liquid   at   each   step   is

 

      essential to good performance. After the last wash, remove

 

      any    remaining      Wash     Buffer   by   aspirating    or  decanting.

 

      Invert the plate and blot it against clean paper towels.

 

  4.   Add 50μl of HRP-avidin to each well. Incubate for 30mins

 

      at 37°C.

 

  5.   Repeat the aspiration and wash five times as step 4.

 

  6.   Add 50μl of Substrate A and Substrate B to each well, mix

 

      well.   Incubate   for   15   minutes   at   37°C.   Keeping   the   plate

 

      away from drafts and other temperature fluctuations in the

 

      dark.

 

                                        8


----------------------- Page 9-----------------------

  7.   Add 50μl of Stop Solution to each well.

 

  8.   Determine the optical density of each well within 10 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,   Blank,   and

 

sample      and    subtract    the   optical    density    of  Blank.    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   y-axis   against   the

 

concentration on the x-axis and draw a best fit curve through the

 

points on the graph. The data may be linearized by plotting the

 

log of the T4 concentrations versus the log of the O.D. 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   Calibrator   Diluent   selected   for   the

 

    standard      curve    be   consistent     with   the    samples     being

 

    assayed.

 

  If samples generate values higher than the highest standard,

 

    dilute the samples with the appropriate Calibrator 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.
