Reagent Preparation
1. Prepare Wash Buffer
Allow wash buffer concentrate to reach room temperature and mix to redissolve any precipitated salts. Dilute Wash Buffer Concentrate into deionized or distilled water. Store the concentrate and 1X wash buffer in the refrigerator.
2. Prepare the thinner
The test diluent should be diluted with deionized or distilled water before use.
3. Preparation of Biotin Conjugation
Spin the biotin conjugate briefly before use. Gently stir up and down with a pipette. Collect samples in pyrogen/endotoxin-free tubes. If samples cannot be tested immediately after collection, freeze samples. Freeze samples to avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
4. Pre-dilute samples
For different types of samples, different dilution solutions should be used for dilution.
5. Prepare 1X Streptavidin-HRP Solution
Quickly swirl Streptavidin-HRP before use and mix gently up and down with a pipette as a precipitate may form during storage. Do not store the diluted solution for future use.
6. Dilution Standards
Dilute standards using glass or plastic tubes. Simply spin off a vial of lyophilized standards.
Assay Procedure
1. Sample Incubation
2. Plate Washing
3. Biotinylated Antibody Reagent Incubation
4. Streptavidin-HRP Solution Preparation and Incubation
5. Substrate Incubation and Stop Step
6. Absorbance Measurement
Note: Evaluate the plate within 30-45 minutes of stopping the reaction.
Calculation of Results
Calculate results using graph paper or curve-fitting statistical software. The human CCL5 amount in each sample is determined by interpolating from the absorbance value (Y axis) to human CCL5 concentration (X axis) using the standard curve.

Background
Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 (also CCL5) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CCL5 gene. The gene has been discovered in 1990 by in situ hybridisation and it is localised on 17q11.2-q12 chromosome. It is also known as RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted). RANTES was first described by Dr. Tom Schall who named the protein, the original source of the name Rantes was from the Argentine movie Man Facing Southeast about an alien who shows up in a mental ward who was named Rantés, the rather clunky acronym was only made to fit the name.
