PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY
The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an
antibody specific to PP14. Standards or samples are then added to
the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated
antibody preparation specific for PP14 and Avidin conjugated to
Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well
and incubated. Then a TMB (3,3’,5,5’ tetramethyl-benzidine)
substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that
contain PP14, 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 PP14 in the samples is
then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the
standard curve.
DETECTION RANGE
The standard curve concentrations used for the ELISA’s are
ranging from 0.63 ng/ml-40 ng/ml.
SPECIFICITY
This assay recognizes human PP14. No significant cross-reactivity
or interference was observed.
3
SENSITIVITY
The minimum detectable dose of human PP14 is typically less than
0.16 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.

REAGENT PREPARATION
Bring all reagents to room temperature before use for 30min..
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. The suggested 100-fold dilution
can be achieved by adding 10 uL Biotin-antibody to 990uL of
Biotin-antibody Diluent for 1ml working solution.
3. HRP-avidin Centrifuge the vial before opening. Dilute to the
working concentration using HRP-avidin Diluent(1:100),
respectively. The suggested 100-fold dilution can be achieved
by adding 10 uL HRP-avidin to 990uL of HRP-avidin Diluent
for 1ml working solution.

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 40 ng/ml. Allow
the standard to sit for a minimum of 15 minutes with gentle and
uniform agitation by pipette with 1ml measuring range prior to
making serial dilutions. The undiluted standard serves as the
high standard (40 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.

OTHER SUPPLIES REQUIRED
? Microplate reader capable of measuring absorbance at 450 nm,
with the correction wavelength set at 540 nm or 570 nm.
? Pipettes and pipette tips.
? Deionized or distilled water.
? Squirt bottle, manifold dispenser, or automated microplate
washer.
? An incubator which can provide stable incubation conditions up
to 37°C±0.5°C.
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, 2 - 8°C. Remove serum and assay immediately or
aliquot and store samples at -20°C or -80℃. Avoid repeated
freeze-thaw cycles. Centrifuge the sample again after thawing
before the assay.
? Plasma Collect plasma using EDTA, or heparin as an
anticoagulant. Centrifuge for 15 minutes at 1000 x g, 2 - 8°C
within 30 minutes of collection. Assay immediately or aliquot
and store samples at -20°C or -80℃. Avoid repeated
freeze-thaw cycles. Centrifuge the sample again after thawing
before the assay.
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. 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.
8
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 PP14 concentrations versus the log of the O.D. and the best
9
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.
? 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.
? 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.
