| VEGFA

Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is a protein that is encoded by the VEGFA gene.This gene is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family and encodes a protein that is often found as a disulfide linked homodimer. This protein is a glycosylated mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells and has various effects, including mediating increased vascular permeability, inducing angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, promoting cell migration, and inhibiting apoptosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants, encoding either freely secreted or cell-associated isoforms, have been characterized.
 

| 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	31.25	15.62	0
OD	2.19	1.71	1.2	0.74	0.48	0.32	0.21	0.07
Corrected OD	2.12	1.64	1.13	0.67	0.41	0.25	0.14	-

 

| Repeatability

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

| Recovery

The recovery of Mouse VEGFA 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)	86-101	96
Plasma(n=8)	92-105	102
Cell Culture Supernates(n=8)	96-108	106

 

| Linearity

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

1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	88-96	90-111
	Average (%)	91	93	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108	105-115
