Product Summary for Human Cystatin B Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human Cystatin B Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure Cystatin B levels in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, saliva, urine, and human milk. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human Cystatin B and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. Results obtained for naturally occurring human Cystatin B and recombinant human Cystatin B showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine Human Cystatin B Immunoassay standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural human Cystatin B.

Recovery for Human Cystatin B Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of Cystatin B spiked to three different levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Media (n=4) 102 90-115
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 96 86-103
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 90 81-97
Serum (n=4) 93 83-103

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing high concentrations of Cystatin B were serially diluted with Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: Cystatin B

Cystatin B, also known as Stefin B or liver thiol proteinase inhibitor, is a member of family 1 of the cystatin superfamily. It is a 98 amino acid, intracellular inhibitor regulating the activities of cysteine proteases of the papain family such as Cathepsins B, H and L.
