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 (0.004-2.0 mmol/L).

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

Sample type Dilution factor
Human serum 1
Mouse serum 1
Rat plasma 1
Human urine 2-3
10% Rat liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Mouse lung tissue homogenate 1
10% Mouse brain tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat muscle tissue homogenate 1

 

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

 

Detection Principle

Inorganic phosphorus react with molybdic acid to produce phosphomolybdic acid. Phosphomolybdic acid can be reduced to molybdenum blue under the action of reducing agent. And the molybdenum blue have a maximum absorption peak at 660 nm. The phosphorus content can be calculated indirectly be measuring the OD value at 660 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 (mmol/L) 0.25 0.78 1.40
%CV 2.5 2.3 1.5


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 (mmol/L) 0.25 0.78 1.40
%CV 3.3 2.6 3.1


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%

Parameters Standard 1 Standard 2 Standard 3
Expected Conc. (mmol/L) 0.15 0.65 1.3
Observed Conc. (mmol/L) 0.2 0.7 1.3
Recovery rate (%) 101 103 99

 

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.004 mmol/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:
