Dilution of Sample

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

Sample type Dilution factor
10% Epipremnum aureum tissue homogenate 1
10% Mouse kidney tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Potato 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

ACC catalyzes acetyl-coA, NaHCO3 and ATP to produce inorganic phosphorus, the activity of ACC can be calculated by measuring the change of inorganic phosphorus content.

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) 12.80 56.50 103.00
%CV 4.2 4.0 3.8


Inter-assay Precision

Three human serum samples were assayed 17 times in duplicate by three operators to determine precision between assays.

Parameters Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3
Mean (U/L) 12.80 56.50 103.00
%CV 7.4 8.2 8.4


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 98%.


Standard 1 Standard 2 Standard 3
Expected Conc. (μmol/L) 126 265 438
Observed Conc. (μmol/L) 127.3 251.8 429.2
Recovery rate (%) 101 95 98

 

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 6.78 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 (μmol/L) 0 100 150 200 300 400 450 500
