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.

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.
