| T-TAU

Total TAU protein（T-TAU) is form a group of six highly soluble protein isoforms produced by alternative splicing from the gene MAPT (microtubule-associated protein tau).They have roles primarily in maintaining the stability of microtubules in axons and are abundant in the neurons of the central nervous system (CNS), where the cerebral cortex has the highest abundance.They are less common elsewhere but are also expressed at very low levels in CNS astrocytes and oligodendrocytes.One of tau's main functions is to modulate the stability of axonal microtubules.
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

 

Concentration (pg/mL)	1000	500	250	125	62.5	31.2	15.6	0
OD	2.28	1.45	0.84	0.5	0.33	0.24	0.18	0.08
Corrected OD	2.2	1.37	0.76	0.42	0.25	0.16	0.1	-

 

| Repeatability

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

| Recovery

The recovery of Human T-TAU 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)	84-101	96
Plasma(n=8)	92-105	103
Cell Culture Supernates(n=8)	96-107	104

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human T-TAU and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)	Cell Culture Supernates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-96	88-96	90-110
	Average (%)	92	93	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108	105-115
	Average (%)	94	98	108
