Product Summary for Human Prolactin Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human Prolactin Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human Prolactin in serum and plasma. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human Prolactin and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human Prolactin 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 naturally occurring Prolactin.

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

Recovery for Human Prolactin Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of Prolactin spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 94 84-105
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 97 90-104
Serum (n=4) 94 84-108

Linearity

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

Background: Prolactin

Prolactin (PRL) is a neuroendocrine pituitary hormone that is synthesized by anterior pituitary, placenta, brain, uterus, dermal fibroblasts, decidua, B cells, T cells, natural killer cells, and breast cancer cells. The prolactin receptor is a transmembrane type I glycoprotein that belongs to the hematopoietic cytokine receptor family.

Prolactin receptor (PRL R) contains an extracellular, transmembrane, and intracellular domain. Transcriptional regulation of the PRL R gene results in several different species-dependent isoforms of PRL R being produced.
