ChIP is an enrichment of DNA bound by a particular protein, not a complete purification of the protein-bound DNA. As a result, ChIPs are unavoidably contaminated with non-specifically captured chromatin. During PCR analysis, this contaminating DNA can lead to false positive PCR products, making data interpretation difficult. To help, Active Motif offers a variety of control options to help eliminate false positives. ChIP-IT Control Kits are the positive and negative controls for human chromatin, which aid in troubleshooting, interpreting results and validating your antibodies for use in ChIP.Having antibodies and primer sets that have been validated for use in ChIP make it much easier for you to interpret and troubleshoot experiments performed with non-validated antibodies.
