Product Summary for Human Galectin-3BP/MAC-2BP Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human Galectin-3BP/MAC-2BP Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure Galectin-3BP in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. It contains NS0-expressed recombinant human Galectin-3BP and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate recombinant human Galectin-3BP. Results obtained using natural human Galectin-3BP showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural human Galectin-3BP.

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 a known concentration were tested in twenty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision. Assays were performed by at least three technicians using two lots of kit components.

Recovery for Human Galectin-3BP/MAC-2BP Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of human Galectin-3BP spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated. Samples were diluted prior to assay.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Media (n=8) 99 95-101
Saliva (n=4) 91 82-101
Urine (n=4) 104 98-111

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing high concentrations of Galectin-3BP were serially diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay. Samples were diluted prior to assay.

Background: Galectin-3BP/MAC-2BP

The galectins constitute a large family of carbohydrate-binding proteins that function in many systems both intracellularly and following secretion. Galectins contain either one or two carbohydrate recognition domains (CRR) which mediate recognition of N-acetyl-lactosamine-containing glycoproteins. Some galectins exist in multiple isoforms due to alternative splicing. Individual galectins differ in their tissue distribution and in their carbohydrate-binding specificities.
