| CASP12

Caspase 12 belongs to a family of enzymes called caspases which cleave their substrates at C-terminal aspartic acid residues. It is closely related to caspase 1 and other members of the caspase family, known as inflammatory caspases, which process and activate inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin 1 and interleukin 18.The CASP12 gene is subject to polymorphism, which can generate a full-length caspase protein (Csp12L) or an inactive truncated form (Csp12S).
 

| 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)	10	5	2.5	1.25	0.625	0.312	0.156	0
OD	2.22	1.56	0.92	0.63	0.42	0.25	0.18	0.08
Corrected OD	2.14	1.48	0.84	0.55	0.34	0.17	0.1	-

 

| Repeatability

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

| Recovery

The recovery of Rat CASP12 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

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Rat CASP12 and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	88-95
	Average (%)	93	90
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108
	Average (%)	100	102
