Q1: What is the shelf life of the ELISA kits?
We guarantee integrity of kit components for up to 6 months from date of purchase
Q2: How to store the components of the 5h-mC ELISA kit?
Shipping of components is on blue and dry ice. Upon arrival, make sure to store buffers at 4°C, Control DNA and Anti-5hmC antibody at -20°C, and the Anti-DNA antibody can be stored at -20°C for 1 week (For long-term storage keep at -80°C).
Q3: Where are the Control DNA derived from?
The DNA ELISA controls are genomic DNA. Control A is E. coli genomic DNA as it comprises 0% 5-hmC. The other controls derive from various mouse tissues and the %5-hmC is specific to each tissue. The levels of 5-hmC are were quantify by mass-spec.
Q4: Which wavelength should be used for the ELISA?
The optimal absorbance is at 405 nm, however 405-450 nm will work as well.
Q5: How to quantify the percentage of 5-hmC in a DNA sample?
To calculate global %5-hmC, control DNAs and samples must be assayed on the same plate. Use the equation x=y-b/m and solve for x (%5-hmC).
Q6: Why is there no color development after addition of HRP developer?
1. Make sure the correct buffers were used to coat, block and wash the plate. 2. Double-check that HRP developer and the Anti-DNA HRP antibody were stored and prepared correctly.
Q7: My ODs so low. What should I check?
1. Make sure that standard curve developed properly (R2 > 0.9). 2. Verify that all samples and controls are prepared correctly, mixed well before dilution and addition to the wells. 3. Ensure that anti-DNA HRP antibody was stored and prepared correctly before addition to the wells. 4. %5-hmC levels of your sample might be too low for the assay to detect (detection limit is 0.01% in 100 ng of denatured DNA).
