| CD34

CD34 is a transmembrane phosphoglycoprotein protein encoded by the CD34 gene.CD34 derives its name from the cluster of differentiation protocol that identifies cell surface antigens. CD34 was first described on hematopoietic stem cells independently by Civin et al. and Tindle et al. as a cell surface glycoprotein and functions as a cell-cell adhesion factor. It may also mediate the attachment of hematopoietic stem cells to bone marrow extracellular matrix or directly to stromal cells. Clinically, it is associated with the selection and enrichment of hematopoietic stem cells for bone marrow transplants.
 

| 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 (ng/mL)	20	10	5	2.5	1.25	0.625	0.312	0
OD	2.31	1.29	0.72	0.45	0.31	0.22	0.18	0.08
Corrected OD	2.23	1.21	0.64	0.37	0.23	0.14	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 CD34 spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Tissue Homogenates(n=8)	84-101	97
Cell Lysates(n=8)	93-105	103

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human CD34 and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Tissue Homogenates(n=4)	Cell Lysates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	88-97
	Average (%)	91	94
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108
	Average (%)	94	98
