Macrophage Chemokine Ligand 10 (CXCL10) ELISA Kit, qPCR (MTS-1123-HM115)

For complex matrices, consistency is the biggest predictor of reproducible CXCL10 trends. Start by clarifying samples (spin to remove debris) and standardize dilution so the matrix composition is similar across groups (especially if serum percentages differ). If you suspect inhibitors, a simple dilution series can reveal whether signal behaves linearly-nonlinearity often indicates interference. Run matched blanks (matrix-only controls) and treat all groups identically in timing and temperature exposure. Even for semi-quantitative outputs, tight process control (same plate layout logic, same incubation windows, and harmonized storage conditions) will greatly improve comparability across experiments.

If your current goal is absolute quantification with a classical standard curve, a conventional colorimetric ELISA can be ideal. This kit, however, is described as a sandwich ELISA intended for semi-quantitative CXCL10 measurement by qPCR, which can be attractive when you prioritize sensitivity to relative differences, need a readout style aligned to nucleic-acid workflows, or want an orthogonal confirmation to protein-only colorimetric signals. For validation, test the same sample set side-by-side, compare rank ordering across conditions, and verify that high/low groups stay consistent. Correlation of trends is typically the most meaningful endpoint.

This kit is positioned for semi-quantitative measurement of CXCL10 using a sandwich ELISA format combined with a qPCR-based readout. In practice, it works well for comparing relative CXCL10 trends across multiple groups (e.g., untreated vs. IFN-γ-stimulated macrophages) where the key goal is consistency and directionality rather than absolute pg/mL precision. We recommend keeping sample handling uniform (same collection time, same freeze-thaw count) and including internal controls across plates/runs so you can confidently compare fold-changes between conditions.
