CLIA Kit for Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC)

PDGF-C; SCDGF; VEGF-E; Fallotein; Spinal cord-derived growth factor; Platelet-derived growth factor C, latent form; Platelet-derived growth factor C, receptor-binding form

The microplate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with a monoclonal antibody specific to Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) . A competitive inhibition reaction is launched between biotin labeled Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) and unlabeled Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) (Standards or samples) with the pre-coated antibody specific to Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) . After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. Next, avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. The amount of bound HRP conjugate is reverse proportional to the concentration of Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) in the sample. Then the mixture of substrate A and B is added to generate glow light emission kinetics. Upon plate development, the intensity of the emitted light is reverse proportional to the Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) level in the sample or standard.

1. Prepare all reagents, samples and standards; <br/> 2. Add 100&micro; L standard or sample to each well. Incubate 2 hours at 37&deg; C; <br/> 3. Aspirate and add 100&micro; L prepared Detection Reagent A. Incubate 1 hour at 37&deg; C; <br/> 4. Aspirate and wash 3 times; <br/> 5. Add 100&micro; L prepared Detection Reagent B. Incubate 30 minutes at 37&deg; C; <br/> 6. Aspirate and wash 5 times; <br/> 7. Add 100&micro; L Substrate Solution. Incubate 10 minutes at 37&deg; C; <br/> 8. Read RLU value immediately.<br/>

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV (%) = SD/meanX100 Intra-Assay: CV Inter-Assay: CV Inter-Assay: CV

The stability of kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.

This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) . No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Platelet Derived Growth Factor C (PDGFC) and analogues was observed.
