Background of PCPE-1/PCOLCE
Procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PCOLCE gene. It is mapped to 7q22.1. Fibrillar collagen types I-III are synthesized as precursor molecules known as procollagens. These precursors contain amino- and carboxyl-terminal peptide extensions known as N- and C-propeptides, respectively, which are cleaved, upon secretion of procollagen from the cell, to yield the mature triple helical, highly structured fibrils. This gene encodes a glycoprotein which binds and drives the enzymatic cleavage of type I procollagen and heightens C-proteinase activity.

Intra Assay Consistency & Inter Assay Consistency
We measured random samples of Mouse PCOLCE 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.

Reproducibility
We ensure reproducibility by testing three samples with differing concentrations of PCPE-1/PCOLCE in ELISA kits from four different production batches/lots.

8 Customer Q&As for Mouse PCOLCE ELISA Kit PicoKine®
Question
Q: which procedure should I follow in order to thaw whole blood sample for PCPE-1 ELISA after freezing?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-11-17
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 PCPE-1 for a later time, you should let the blood clot in glass tubes and separate the serum to freeze for later analysis.

Question
Q: if the enzyme conjugated PCPE-1 antibodies are mixed with the substrate, will that change the substrate into the enzymatic reaction product? Or the enzyme function is only activated when the antibody is attached with the PCPE-1 antigen?
H. Evans
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-02-24
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.

Question
Q: how long can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for measurement PCPE-1 using the EK2106 Mouse PCPE-1 Picokine® ELISA Kit?
S. Evans
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-04-08
Answer
A: Boster Bio does not assess sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may affect 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 to prevent protein degradation.

Question
Q: is it okay to use citrate plasma as samples in Mouse PCPE-1 Picokine® ELISA Kit (Catalog # EK2106)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2017-05-22
Answer
A: Chelating agents such as EDTA, Heparin and Citrate can irreversibly bind metal ions from the functional domain of PCPE-1 causing degradation of its protein structure. PCPE-1 may be denatured as a result and may compromise the assay's measurements. The chilating sites could also be too close to the epitopes needed for detection and block the antigen antibody reaction. We have tested the PCPE-1 ELISA, treating samples with a number of anticoagulants and decided that heparin or EDTA can be used for treatment of blood/plasma samples. Do not use other anticoagulents when collecting samples.

Question
Q: Are Boster Bio recombinant proteins and antibodies sterile?
C. Smith
Verified customer
Asked: 2015-08-29
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 a must for an experiment, the material can be filtered through a 0.2 micron filter designed for use with biological fluids.

Question
Q: how many samples can be assayed in a Picokine® ELISA Kit?
J. Robinson
Verified customer
Asked: 2014-08-03
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 vary slightly by kit so please refer to each datasheet for details.
