Company:

Boster Biological Technical Co. Ltd.

Product Name:

Mouse MCP-1 PicoKine™ ELISA Kit

Catalog Number:

EK0568

I used this kit to quantify MCP-1 protein before and after inflammation in vitro in RAW 264.7 cells and 3T3 L1 cell lines. The levels of MCP-1 are expected to increase following the treatment with a pro-inflammatory reagent.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

To quantify CCL2 in cell culture media

Starting Material

Centrifuged cell culture media supernatant

Tips

Perform washing steps at-least 6-7 times to get a clearer background with 60 sec. wait period in between each washing

Results Summary

Had to perform the analysis twice initially as the background wasn't clear. Overall, good reproducible estimation.
