Dilution of Sample

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

Sample type Dilution factor
Rat plasma 1
Rat serum 1
10% Mouse kidney tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat kidney tissue homogenate 1
10% Mouse liver tissue homogenate 1

 

Note: The diluent is normal saline (0.9% NaCl). For the dilution of other sample types, please do pretest to confirm the dilution factor.

 

Detection Principle

XOD can catalyze hypoxanthine to xanthine, and at the same time while producing superoxide anion free radicals. In the presence of electron acceptor and chromogenic agent, the purplish red substance can be generated, and the vitality of XOD can be calculated by measuring the production of purplish red substance.

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 (U/L) 1.20 13.50 26.40
%CV 3.4 3.0 2.6


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 (U/L) 1.20 13.50 26.40
%CV 9.0 10.4 10.3


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 99%.


Standard 1 Standard 2 Standard 3
Expected Conc. (mmol/L) 0.25 0.46 0.77
Observed Conc. (mmol/L) 0.2 0.4 0.9
Recovery rate(%) 89 93 115

 

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.067 U/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 0.3 0.4 0.6 0.7 0.8 1
OD value 0.042 0.194 0.268 0.327 0.484 0.561 0.631 0.757
