原理
This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate Hcy in samples. An antibody specific for Hcy has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any Hcy present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for Hcy is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Hcy bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
产品概述
Homocysteine is an amino acid with the formula HSCH2CH2CH(NH2)CO2H. It is a homologue of the amino acid cysteine, differing by an additional methylene (-CH2-) group. It is biosynthesized from methionine by the removal of its terminal Cε methyl group. Homocysteine can be recycled into methionine or converted into cysteine with the aid of B-vitamins.Homocysteine is not obtained from the diet. Instead, it is biosynthesized from methionine via a multi-step process. First, methionine receives an adenosine group from ATP, a reaction catalyzed by S-Adenosyl-methionine synthetase, to give S-adenosyl methionine ('SAM'). SAM then transfers the methyl group to an acceptor molecule. The adenosine is then hydrolyzed to yield L-homocysteine. L-homocysteine has two primary fates: conversion via tetrahydrofolate (THF) back into L-methionine or conversion to L-cysteine.

特异性
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human Hcy. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human Hcy and analogues was observed.
回收率
Matrices listed below were spiked with certain level of recombinant Human Hcy and the recovery rates were calculated by comparing the measured value to the expected amount of Human Hcy in samples.

精密度
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)
Three samples of known concentration were tested in forty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.
CV (%) = SD/meanX100
Intra-Assay: CV<8%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%
线性
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of Human Hcy and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.

稳定性
The stability of ELISA kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test. Keep the kit at 37°C for 4 and 7 days, and compare O.D.values of the kit kept at 37°C with that of at recommended temperature. (referring from China Biological Products Standard, which was calculated by the Arrhenius equation. For ELISA kit, 4 days storage at 37°C can be considered as 6 months at 2 - 8°C, which means 7 days at 37°C equaling 12 months at 2 - 8°C).
样本收集及储存
Serum: Use a serum separator tube (SST) and allow samples to clot for two hours at room temperature or overnight at 2 - 8°C before centrifugation for 15 minutes at 1000 × g. Remove serum and assay immediately or aliquot and store samples at ≤ -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Plasma: Collect plasma using EDTA, or heparin as an anticoagulant. Centrifuge for 15 minutes at 1000 × g at 2 - 8°C within 30 minutes of collection. Assay immediately or aliquot and store samples at ≤ -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Other biological fluids: Centrifuge samples for 20 minutes at 1000 × g. Remove particulates and assay immediately or store samples in aliquot at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
注意事项
Store at 2-8°C. Please refer to Instruction Manual.
