Dilution of Sample

It is recommended to take 2~3 samples with expected large difference to do pre-experiment before formal experiment and dilute the sample according to the result of the pre-experiment and the detection range ( 0.02-1 mmol/L).

The recommended dilution factor for different samples is as follows (for reference only):

Sample type Dilution factor
Human urine 1-2
Human plasma 1
10% Epipremnum aureum tissue homogenate 2-3
Rats plasma 1


Note: The diluent is double distilled water.

 

Detection Principle

Oxalate oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of oxalate to produce hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide. Under the action of POD, hydrogen peroxide reacts with chromogenic substances to produce colored products. There is a specific absorption peak at 550 nm, and the color depth is proportional to the content of oxalate.

Technical Data:

Parameter:

Intra-assay Precision

Three human serum samples were assayed in replicates of 20 to determine precision within an assay (CV = Coefficient of Variation).

Parameters Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3
Mean (mmol/L) 0.08 0.54 0.88
%CV 3.5 3.1 2.4


Inter-assay Precision

Three human serum samples were assayed 20 times in duplicate by three operators to determine precision between assays.

Parameters Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3
Mean (mmol/L) 0.08 0.54 0.88
%CV 4.8 5.2 4.1


Recovery

Take three samples of high concentration, middle concentration and low concentration to test the samples of each concentration for 6 times parallelly to get the average recovery rate of 95%.


Standard 1 Standard 2 Standard 3
Expected Conc. (mmol/L) 0.35 0.55 0.75
Observed Conc. (mmol/L) 0.3 0.5 0.7
Recovery rate(%) 96 94 95

 

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.02 mmol/L. This was determined by adding two standard deviations to the mean O.D. obtained when the zero standard was assayed 20 times, and calculating the corresponding concentration.

 

Standard Curve

As the OD value of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique or temperature effects), so the standard curve and data are provided as below for reference only:

Concentration (mmol/L) 0 0.2 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 1.0
Average OD 0.046 0.137 0.228 0.268 0.316 0.353 0.390 0.468
Absoluted OD 0.000 0.090 0.182 0.222 0.270 0.307 0.344 0.422
