Human Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 2 (PCSK2) ELISA Kit
The Human Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 2 (PCSK2) ELISA Kit is specifically designed for the accurate and reliable detection of PCSK2 levels in human serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, ensuring precise and reproducible results for a variety of research applications.PCSK2 is an important enzyme involved in the processing of prohormones and neuropeptides, playing a critical role in various physiological processes including metabolism, energy homeostasis, and neuronal functions.
Dysregulation of PCSK2 has been linked to metabolic disorders, obesity, and neurodegenerative diseases, making it a valuable biomarker for studying these conditions and potentially developing therapeutic interventions.With its user-friendly format and superior performance, the Human PCSK2 ELISA Kit from Assay Genie provides researchers with a powerful tool for investigating the role of PCSK2 in health and disease, advancing our understanding of its biological functions and potential clinical implications.

Linearity:
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of the index and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.

Intra-assay Precision:
Intra-Assay: CV <10%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision:
Inter-Assay: CV <12%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.
Stability:
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 conditions. Note: To minimize unnecessary influences on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity and incubator temperatures should be strictly regulated. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same experimenter from the beginning to the end.
