Detection Principle
ATPase exists on the membrane of tissue cells and organelles. It is a kind of protease on the biological membrane which plays an important role in material transport, energy conversion and information transmission. Ca2+ which participates in the regulation of different enzyme systems and cell activities plays many important roles in cells. The flow of Ca2+ depends on the Ca2+ -ATPase on the cell membrane, and Ca2+ -ATPase consumes ATP to generate the energy needed for ion transport.

Technical Data:
Parameter:
Intra-assay Precision
Three mouse kidney 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/kg wet weight) | 5.20 | 18.40 | 25.50 |
%CV | 4.6 | 4.2 | 3.5 |
Inter-assay Precision
Three mouse kidney samples were assayed 20 times in duplicate by three operators to determine precision between assays.
Parameters | Sample 1 | Sample 2 | Sample 3 |
Mean (U/kg wet weight) | 5.20 | 18.40 | 25.50 |
%CV | 8.4 | 9.0 | 9.0 |
Sensitivity
The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.8 U/g wet weight. 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.
