  • Data sheet
  • background | this ELISA assay utilise the principle of competitive binding to measure the concentration of hormone in plant extracts. The N6-isopentenyladenosine specific antibodies are precoated to the surface of the reaction wells. The plant extract sample, containing an unknown amount of hormone, is mixed in the reaction well with a known amount of a tracer to react with a limited number of antibodies in the reaction wells. During incubation the hormone in the sample competes with the tracer for the antibody binding sites. Unbound hormone, tracer and plant extract are washed out of the reaction wells. Following substrate addition which reacts with a tracer bound to the antibody and produces a yellow-coloured product. The absorbance of the sample is converted to concentration of hormone by means of a standard curve which is produced by simultaneously treating standards along with the samples.

    note: The antibody has been prepared for riboside. But it binds also free base isopentenyladenine 6-(y,y-Dimethylallylamino)purine. 50% cross-reactivity.


    Important note: Do NOT methylate cytokinin samples as this will significantly decrease the sensitivity of the assay.

    Sample clean up
    Processing of plant extracts required prior ELISA analysis may vary from plant to plant and will depend upon the actual research objectivce. In most cases pigments and lipophilic material needs to be removed by C18 reversed phase chromatography and subsequently by combined DEAE-cellulose-reversed phase C18 columns.
    Samples from algae and bacteria can be analyzed directly or after pre-purification.
     

    Example of extraction and purification from plant tissues
    Frozen plant tissues are ground to a fine powder under liquid nitrogen. The powder is extracted in ice-cold 70% ethanol (10 ml . g-1 FW) containing sodium diethyldithiocarbamate asantioxidant (400 ug . g-1 FW). About 420 Bq (25.000 dpm) of [2-3H] auxin tracer is added to the extracts to monitor for losses during purification steps and to validate the chromatographic data. After 2 h extraction, the homogenate is centrifuged (15 000 g, 4°C) and pellets are re-extracted by the same way. The combined extracts are then purified over a reversed phase C18 column to eliminate chlorophyll and lipids. The extracts are subsequently concentrated to approx. 1.0 ml by rotary evaporation under vacuum at 35°C. The samples are diluted to 20 ml with ammonium acetate buffer (40 mM, pH 6.5) containing sodium diethyldithiocarbamate. For the immunoassay dilution analysis, the 2 ml of eluates is dried in vacuo and re-dissolved in Tris-buffered saline (TBS, 50 mM Tris, 10 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2, pH 7.5). Aliquots of these solutions are either analysed in serial dilutions or mixed with known amounts of IAA standards and then analysed by ELISAs. The extracts are further purified using combined diethylaminoethylcellulose (1.0 x 5.0 cm) - octadecylsilica (0.5 x 1.5 cm) columns. IAA and its amino acid metabolites are loaded onto a DEAE column cartridge which is then washed with 10 ml dest. water and eluted in 5 ml 6% HCOOH (v/v). The eluates are loaded onto a C18 cartridge and after washing with 5 ml dest. water eluted with 5 ml methanol. The eluates are than evaporated to dryness, dissolved in 50 ul 70% ethanol + 250 ul dest. water and filtered through a HPLC pre-filter (0.22 um).
