Dilution Of Sample

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

Sample type Dilution factor
10% Mouse liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat lung tissue homogenate 1
10% Mouse kidney tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat brain tissue homogenate 1
Human serum 1


The diluent is buffer working solution. For the dilution of other sample types, please do pretest to confirm the dilution factor.

 

Detection Principle

MAO can catalysis 4-dimethylambenzylamine to produce p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde. p-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde has a characteristic absorption peak at 355 nm. The activity of MAO can be calculated indirectly by analyzing the production of p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde.

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)
80.00 265.00 420.00
%CV 3.2 2.4 2.5

 

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)
80.00 265.00 420.00
%CV 3.5 3.0 3.4


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 101%.


Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3
Expected Conc. (U/L) 130 325 510
Observed Conc. (U/L) 130.0 331.5 515.1
Recovery rate (%) 100 102 101

 

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 6 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.
