Guest Rain Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Dear Mabtech support team I used mouse IFN-γ ELISpot kit, and I found that the spots are so blurring, like picture 1 and 2. Could you please tell me why could this happen? Thanks a lot. Looking forward to your suggestions! Thanks, Rain 1.bmp 2.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian@mabtech.com Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 The spots look rather large and blurry, yes. Is this a precoated kit you purchased from Mabtech or have you coated the plates yourself? What concentration of capture mab did you use? Are these mouse splenocytes incubated for a long time in the plate? Please give me as much experimental info as possible. best, Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are mouse splenocytes, we incubated for 36h. We fogot to detach the underdrain before drying. Could this matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian@mabtech.com Posted April 17 Report Share Posted April 17 No the underdrain has no impact on this phenomenon I would say. What substrate did you use? Mabtech? When you coated the plate, did you use etoh pre-activation of the PVDF membrane? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot to filtrate the substrate with 0.45um membrane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
