**Purpose of the Kit:**
This kit is designed for the quantitative determination of TGF-β1 in canine serum, plasma, urine, cell culture supernatants, tissue homogenates, and other biological fluids.
**Principle of the Assay:**
The TGF-β1 ELISA kit uses a double-antibody sandwich method. The microtiter plate is pre-coated with a specific anti-TGF-β1 antibody. After adding the sample, TGF-β1 binds to the immobilized antibody. An HRP-labeled secondary antibody is then added, forming an immune complex. After washing, TMB substrate is added, and the reaction is stopped with a stop solution. The color intensity is measured at 450 nm, and the concentration is calculated based on a standard curve.
**Sample Preparation Instructions:**
1. **Serum:** Allow blood to clot at room temperature for 10–20 minutes, then centrifuge at 2000–3000 rpm for 20 minutes. Collect the supernatant.
2. **Plasma:** Use EDTA or sodium citrate as anticoagulant. Mix for 10–20 minutes, then centrifuge and collect the supernatant.
3. **Urine:** Centrifuge at 2000–3000 rpm for 20 minutes. Collect the supernatant.
4. **Cell Culture Supernatant:** Centrifuge and collect the supernatant. For intracellular components, lyse cells by freezing and thawing, then centrifuge again.
5. **Tissue Homogenate:** Weigh the tissue, add PBS, homogenize, and centrifuge. Collect the supernatant.
6. **Storage:** Keep samples at 2–8°C if testing soon. If not tested immediately, store at -20°C, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Do not use samples containing NaN3.
**Procedure Summary:**
1. **Standard Dilution:** Prepare a serial dilution of the standard (1800 ng/L to 150 ng/L).
2. **Sample Addition:** Add 40 µL of sample diluent and 10 µL of sample to each well (final dilution: 5×).
3. **Incubation:** Seal the plate and incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes.
4. **Washing:** Wash 5 times with diluted washing buffer.
5. **Enzyme Addition:** Add 50 µL of enzyme conjugate to each well.
6. **Incubation:** Incubate again at 37°C for 30 minutes.
7. **Color Development:** Add 50 µL of TMB A and B, incubate at 37°C for 15 minutes.
8. **Stop Reaction:** Add 50 µL of stop solution.
9. **Reading:** Measure OD at 450 nm within 15 minutes.
**Data Analysis:**
Plot the standard concentrations against their corresponding OD values to generate a standard curve. Use linear regression to calculate the unknown sample concentrations. Multiply by the dilution factor to obtain the actual concentration.
**Notes:**
- Equilibrate the kit at room temperature for 15–30 minutes before use.
- Avoid cross-contamination; use a new sealing film for each test.
- Ensure accurate pipetting and avoid light exposure during color development.
- Always prepare a standard curve and perform duplicate measurements.
- Follow the manual strictly; results should be confirmed with a microplate reader.
