Product Specifications
Measurement
Quantitative ELISA
Detection Method
Colorimetric - 450nm (TMB)
Conjugate
Biotin
Reactivity
Multi-Species
Specificity
Measures Cortisol levels in various samples
Cross-reactivity
Cross-reactivity observed with 1 or more available related molecules. Cross-species reactivity not tested.

Precision
Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in forty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision. Assays were performed by at least three technicians using two lots of components.

Recovery for Cortisol Parameter Assay Kit
The recovery of Cortisol spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Media (n=4) | 103 | 87-113 |
| EDTA Plasma (n=4) | 97 | 94-103 |
| Heparin Plasma (n=4) | 98 | 92-107 |
| Saliva (n=4) | 101 | 88-118 |
| Serum (n=4) | 95 | 89-100 |
| Urine (n=4) | 92 | 78-113 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of Cortisol were serially diluted with calibrator diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.
