Product Summary for Human Amphiregulin Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human Amphiregulin Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure human Amphiregulin in cell culture supernates, cell lysates serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. It contains E. coli-derived recombinant human Amphiregulin and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained with natural human Amphiregulin 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 Amphiregulin.

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 separate assays to assess inter-assay precision. Assays were performed by at least three technicians using two lots of components.

Recovery for Human Amphiregulin Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of Amphiregulin spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Media (n=4) 95 88-101
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 93 82-105
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 94 82-103
Saliva (n=4) 104 98-113
Serum (n=4) 95 85-103
Urine (n=4) 88 75-99

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of human Amphiregulin were serially diluted with Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: Amphiregulin

Amphiregulin (AR) is an EGF family growth factor that is released as a soluble protein following proteolytic cleavage of its transmembrane precursor. Amphiregulin is expressed by numerous carcinoma cell lines and epithelial cells of the colon, stomach, breast, ovary and kidney. It acts through ErbB family of receptor to stimulate the proliferation of keratinocytes, mammary epithelial cells, fibroblasts, astrocytes and glial cells. Amphiregulin can also inhibit the growth of certain tumor cells.
