Background of Chitotriosidase/CHIT1

Chitotriosidase encoded by the CHIT1 gene is a member of the chitinase family that is selectively expressed in activated tissue macrophages. This gene is mapped to 1q32.1. Chitotriosidase is secreted by activated human macrophages and is markedly elevated in plasma of Gaucher disease patients. The expression of chitotriosidase occurs only at a late stage of differentiation of monocytes to activated macrophages in culture. Human macrophages can synthesize a functional chitotriosidase, a highly conserved enzyme with a strongly regulated expression. This enzyme may play a role in the degradation of chitin-containing pathogens. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene.

Intra Assay Consistency & Inter Assay Consistency

We measured random samples of Human Chitotriosidase/CHIT1 ELISA Kit PicoKine® within the same batch/lot to ensure the consistency of the kits' performances. ELISA intra assay consistency is measured using wells from the same plate/assay kit. ELISA inter assay consistency is measured using wells from different plates from the same batch production/lot.

4 Customer Q&As for Human Chitotriosidase/CHIT1 ELISA Kit PicoKine®

Question

Q: we need your suggestion regarding the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of CHIT1 in Human plasma? I am trying to measure a few analytes and it requires 100ul of diluted samples for each well. We have low serum quantitys so we like to dilute as much as possible.

S. Zhao

Verified customer

Asked: 2020-11-13

Answer

A: without knowing the physiological or pathological context of your samples we cannot recommend a dilution ratio without performing a pilot test with your samples. Here is how you can perform a pilot study on your own: perform a serial dilution of your samples on the CHIT1 ELISA kit to make sure you have a linear ascending curve followed by a plateau, which signifies the samples saturating the detection limit of the kit. Then you can pick the dilution ratios from samples in the linear part of the curve as your experimental dilution ratio.
If you are interested in using our ELISA service, you can also send us your sample and we will take care of everything for you. You can check our service details here: bosterbio.com/services/assay-services/ELISA-testing-service
Since you mentioned you have limited samples, our cost effective multiplex ELISA service would fit perfectly for your needs, where we can generate dozens of data points using as little as 25ul sample volume. Information on this service is also in the above link.

Question

Q: for how much duration can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for measuring CHIT1 using the EK2032 Human CHIT1 Picokine® ELISA Kit?

L. Lee

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-03-16

Answer

A: Boster Bio does not assess sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may alter the stabilityof samples. It is recommend to assay sample immediately after collection when possible, or aliquot into single use volumes and store samples frozen. limit repetitive freeze-thaw cycles with the stored samples in order to limit protein degradation.

Question

Q: which procedure should I follow in order to thaw whole blood sample for CHIT1 ELISA after freezing?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-01-16

Answer

A: we do not recommend freezing and thaw whole blood. erythrocytes are fragile and, if frozen and thawed, will undergo hemolysis rendering the samples useless. To keep your blood samples to test CHIT1 for a later time, you should let the blood clot in glass tubes and separate the serum to freeze for later analysis.

Answered: 2019-01-16

Question

Q: if the enzyme conjugated CHIT1 antibodies are mixed with the substrate, will that convert the substrate into the enzymatic reaction product? Or the enzyme function is only activated when the antibody is attached with the CHIT1 antigen?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2017-11-21

Answer

A: The enzyme is always active. Avoid contaminating the substrate with enzyme prior to the incubation otherwise it compromises the assay with false positive signal.
