Assay Background for Adalimumab Assay
Adalimumab is a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody specific for human tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). Adalimumab is produced by recombinant DNA technology in a mammalian cell expression system and is purified by a process that includes specific viral inactivation and removal steps. Adalimumab binds specifically to (TNF-α) and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors. TNF is a naturally occurring cytokine that is involved in normal inflammatory and immune responses. Elevated levels of TNF are found in the synovial fluid of rheumatoid arthritis, including juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis patients and play an important role in both the pathologic inflammation and the joint destruction that are hallmarks of these diseases. Increased TNF levels are also found in psoriasis (Ps) plaques.
Sample Preparation and Storage for Adalimumab ELISA:
Blood is taken by venipuncture. Serum is separated after clotting by centrifugation. Plasma can be used, too. Lipaemic, hemolytic or contaminated samples should not be run. Repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided. If samples are to be used for several assays, initially aliquot samples and keep at – 20°C. For samples can be stored at -20°C or -80⁰C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
