Product Specifications Data Sheet
| About | Sandwich enzyme immunoassay |
| Detection Method | Colorimetric |
| Storage | Kit ships at 2 to 8°C. Multiple storage temperatures upon arrival. |
| Positive Control | Rabbit anti-darbepoetin alpha |
| Sensitivity | 100 ng/mL |
| Drug Tolerance | 1000 ng/mL |
| Sample Pre-Treatment | Drug tolerance can be improved with acid dissociation. For further details please contact tec@somrubioscience.com. |
| Precision | Intra-assay precision ranges from 3 to 7%. Inter-assay mean precision is 12%. Determined by analysis of samples at 500 ng/mL in 6 replicates, on 6 different occasions. |
| Interpretation of Results | Results are reported as positive or negative relative to a pre-determined cutpoint. To determine the cutpoint, run 4-10 negative controls and calculate their mean, then add 2* standard deviations to the calculated mean. |
| Statistical CutPoint | We strongly recommend each lab develop their own statistical cutpoint in the appropriate study population using methodologies as described by G. Shankar, et al. (2008). (Recommendations for the Validation of Immunoassays Used for Detection of Host Antibodies Against Biotechnology Products. J. Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis 48:1267–1281). For further details please contacts tec@somrubioscience.com. |
| Safety Warnings and Precautions | All reagents and samples should be handled as if potentially hazardous and infectious. It is recommended that all kit reagents are handled by trained laboratory staff and are used in accordance with GLP. |
Notice: Somru® ELISA kits are custom-made to order. Each kit lot is tested to ensure that it meets specifications before shipment. Minor adjustments to the preparation of reagents may occur due to lot-to-lot variation. Please always refer to the product sheet enclosed with each kit before performing each experiment.
