Description
Specificity
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of Orexin (OX).
No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Orexin (OX) and analogs was observed.
Recovery
Matrices listed below were spiked with a certain level of recombinant Orexin (OX). The recovery rates were calculated by comparing the measured value to the expected amount of Orexin (OX) in samples.
Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level Orexin (OX) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level Orexin (OX) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.
CV(%) = SD/meanX100
Intra-Assay: CV<10%
Inter-assay: CV<12%
Linearity
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of Orexin (OX) and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected
Stability
The loss rate of activity determines the stability of the kit. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage conditions.
To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, and 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.
