ELISA weak reaction

Hi all

I am working on human blood sample to isolate leukocytes then challenge with lipopolysaccharide to produce cytokines namely TNF and IL-1 and finally measure the cytokine level by Sandwich ELISA.
For months everything going well but recently I got many experiment results with weak ELISA reactions comparing with previous experiments
I think I have a problem with ELISA not with the monocytes isolation technique because I got that weak reaction even with the standard cytokine that comes with the ELISA kit

So could any one have a good experience with Sandwich ELISA comment on what in ELISA I have such a problem

any comment will be much appreciated

Are the wells colorless just when the cromogen is added? Or do the wells remain colorless after incubation? It can take a little time for color to develop.
