| CA125

Mucin-16 (MUC-16) also known as Ovarian cancer-related tumor marker CA125 is a protein that is encoded by the MUC16 gene.MUC-16 is a member of the mucin family glycoproteins.MUC-16 has found application as a tumor marker or biomarker that may be elevated in the blood of some patients with specific types of cancers, most notably ovarian cancer, or other conditions that are benign.
 

| 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	2.32	1.5	0.87	0.52	0.35	0.24	0.18	0.08
Corrected OD	2.24	1.42	0.79	0.44	0.27	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 Mouse CA125 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	95
Plasma(n=8)	92-106	103
Cell Culture Supernates(n=8)	96-109	105

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Mouse CA125 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	88-95	90-110
	Average (%)	91	93	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108	105-114
	Average (%)	94	98	107
