Detection Principle
AST can catalyze the substrate to produce pyruvate. Pyruvate is oxidized to produce hydrogen peroxide, which causes the fluorescent probe to produce fluoresce. The activity of AST can be calculated by measuring the increase of fluorescence value at the excitation wavelength of 535 nm and the emission wavelength of 587 nm.

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) | 0.10 | 0.80 | 1.20 |
%CV | 2.5 | 2.2 | 1.9 |
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) | 0.10 | 0.80 | 1.20 |
%CV | 6.7 | 7.5 | 7.7 |
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 100%.
Standard 1 | Standard 2 | Standard 3 | |
Expected Conc. (μmol/L) | 15 | 36.5 | 55 |
Observed Conc. (μmol/L) | 14.9 | 35.8 | 56.7 |
Recovery rate (%) | 99 | 98 | 103 |
Sensitivity
The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.03 U/L. This was determined by adding two standard deviations to the mean F. obtained when the zero standard was assayed 20 times, and calculating the corresponding concentration.
Standard Curve:
As the fluorescence 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 | 10 | 20 | 30 | 40 | 50 | 60 | 80 |
Average fluorescence value | 1019 | 2598 | 4185 | 5490 | 7018 | 8482 | 9917 | 12725 |
Absoluted fluorescence value | 0 | 1579 | 3166 | 4471 | 5999 | 7463 | 8898 | 11706 |
