Protein ladders are a set of standards known as molecular weight proteins that are utilized to identify the approximate size of a protein molecule run on a PAGE gel electrophoresis. The challenges in running the ladders are the choice of appropriate protein standard as it is used as visual evidence of protein migration, transfer efficiency, and positive control. Suitable protein markers can be selected on the basis of required properties and applications, i.e., fluorescent ladder, IEF, 2D SDS-PAGE ladder, natural ladder with an isoelectric point, and optimized ladders for Western Blot chemiluminescence detection. The key factors for running a distinct protein ladder are buffer conditions, charge/voltage at migration time, and the gel's concentration.

ELISA is the most commonly used method of detecting and quantifying the concentration of an antigen in an unknown sample. During the experiment, If you get a weak signal, then make sure reagents are at room temperature before starting the assay. Try increasing incubation times to ensure maximal antibody binding and amplify the signal. Secondly, if you get values above 0 in the negative control indicates a high background signal. Try to consider reducing your antibody concentration and prevent non-specific binding of antibodies by using affinity-purified antibody and suitable blocking buffers. To avoid high well to well variation, do not stack plates during incubation, no bubbles in the plate and wash wells thoroughly to avoid variation.
