| Aβ1-40

Amyloid-β (Aβ) is a 39-43 amino acid peptide produced by the proteolytic hydrolysis of amyloid precursor proteins by β- and γ-secretase enzymes. It is produced by a variety of cells and circulates in blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and interstitial fluid, mostly bound to chaperone molecules, but rarely in a free state. It is produced by a variety of cells and circulates in blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and interstitial fluid, mostly bound to chaperone protein molecules, with a few in the free state.The most common isoforms of Aβ are Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42.
 

| 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.

| Repeatability

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

| Recovery

The recovery of Mouse Aβ1-40 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	102
Cell Culture Supernates(n=8)	96-108	105

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Mouse Aβ1-40 and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.
