Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) Activity Assay Kit

Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) Activity Assay Kit

Product Details

Properties

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 (0.03-99 U/L).

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

Note: The diluent is normal saline (0.9% NaCl).

Detection Principle

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) can hydrolyzed the substrate adenosine to form hypoxanthine riboside, which is hydrolyzed by purine riboside phosphatase to produce hypoxanthine and phosphate ribose. Under the action of xanthine oxidase, hypoxanthine produces hydrogen peroxide, which produces red substance under the action of peroxidase, 4-aminotepyrine and color source. The red substance has the maximum absorption peak at 550 nm and the changes of absorbance is proportional to the activity of ADA.

Kit Components & Storage

Note: The reagents must be stored strictly according to the preservation conditions in the above table. The reagents in different kits cannot be mixed with each other. For a small volume of reagents, please centrifuge before use, so as not to obtain sufficient amount of reagents.

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)

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

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%.

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.03 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.
