| ACTH

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH; also adrenocorticotropin, corticotropin) is a polypeptide tropic hormone produced by and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. It is also used as a medication and diagnostic agent. ACTH is an important component of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and is often produced in response to biological stress (along with its precursor corticotropin-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus). Its principal effects are increased production and release of cortisol and androgens by the zona fasiculata and zona reticularis, respectively. ACTH is also related to the circadian rhythm in many organisms.

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%

| Recovery

The recovery of Monkey ACTH spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Serum(n=8)	81-101	96
Plasma(n=8)	92-106	102

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Monkey ACTH and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	83-95	88-96
1 : 2	Average (%)	91	93
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-104	87-108
1 : 4	Average (%)	94	98
