Background of TFPI-2
TFPI2, also called Tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TFPI2 gene. It is mapped to 7q21.3. This gene encodes a member of the Kunitz-type serine proteinase inhibitor family. The protein can inhibit a variety of serine proteases including factor VIIa/tissue factor, factor Xa, plasmin, trypsin, chymotryspin and plasma kallikrein. This gene has been identified as a tumor suppressor gene in several types of cancer. Qualitative PCR and microarray analyses showed that expression of TFPI2 was inversely correlated with that of MIR616 in prostate cancer cell lines, primary tumors of various grades, and normal tissue.

Intra Assay Consistency & Inter Assay Consistency
We measured random samples of Human TFPI2 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.

7 Customer Q&As for Human TFPI2 ELISA Kit PicoKine®
Question
Q: Are Boster Bio recombinant proteins and antibodies sterile?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-11-30
Answer
A: although the vials are bottled using aseptic techniques, heat-treated vials, and sterile stock solutions, they are not considered or guaranteed to be sterile. If sterile material is needed for an experiment, the material can be filtered through a 0.2 micron filter designed for use with biological fluids.

Question
Q: how long can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for quantification TFPI-2 using the EK1358 Human TFPI-2 Picokine® ELISA Kit?
L. Phillips
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-07-04
Answer
A: Boster Bio does not assess sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may change the stabilityof samples. It is recommend to assay sample on-stat collection when possible, or aliquot into single use volumes and store samples frozen. avoid repetitive freeze-thaw cycles with the stored samples in order to prevent protein degradation.

Question
Q: which procedure should I follow in order to thaw whole blood sample for TFPI-2 ELISA after freezing?
W. Zhao
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-05-20
Answer
A: do not freeze 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 TFPI-2 for a later time, you should let the blood clot in glass tubes and collect the serum to freeze for later use.

Question
Q: how much samples can be assayed in a Picokine® ELISA Kit?
K. Lewis
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-04-13
Answer
A: The Picokine® ELISA Kits will generally run a 7-point standard curve, non-specific binding wells, and 39 samples in duplicate. this may might differ by kit so please refer to each datasheet for details.

Question
Q: Can TFPI-2 ELISA Kits be used with tissue homogenates (or other non-validated sample types)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-03-07
Answer
A: Unfortunately, Boster Bio has not routinely validated tissue homogenates as a sample type for ELISA kits. This does not mean that ELISA kits are not suitable for other sample types than we have tested: it means further investigation is required. One will need to perform a spike and recovery study to determine if an unvalidated sample type will work with a particular kit. To perform a spike and recovery experiment, one should divide a sample into two aliquots. In one of the aliquots, the user should spike in a known amount of the kit standard. a dilution series is performed comparing the spiked versus the unspiked sample. Generally, samples with expected recovery and linearity between 80-120% are considered acceptable. This method can be used to validate any sample type that has not been assessd by Boster Bio. for a more detailed spike and recovery protocol, please contact technical support.
Note: acceptable ranges should be determined individually by each laboratory. Additionally, technical support can help determine if a buffer component is not compatible with a given ELISA kit. please see the Citations tab on the product webpage for peer-reviewed papers utilizing a wide range of sample types. We also have an innovator's reward program where if the user validates our ELISA kits in applications or samples previously not validated by Boster Bio or other users, and share such information with us by submit a review, we will reward the user's efforts with a free antibody or ELISA kit from our catalog. Biocompare.com will also give $20 Amazon giftcard as an additional reward, if the review is submitted there as well.

Question
Q: how are cell lysates prepared for use in Picokine® ELISA kits?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-02-24
Answer
A: in those Picokine® ELISAs where cell or tissue lysate is a validated sample type, sample preparation instructions for lysate are included in the product insert. Components in lysate and lysis buffer can have an affect on immunoreactivity, so if lysate is not a validated sample type, care must be taken in sample preparation and validation.
