QC54, Parameter Immunoassay Control Set 870 for cGMP -

Product Summary

The Parameter cGMP Immunoassay is a 3.5 hour competitive enzyme immunoassay designed to measure cGMP   in cell culture supernates, plasma, saliva, urine, and cell lysates.

Precision

Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.

Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.

Cell Culture Supernates, EDTA Plasma, Saliva, Urine
 

Cell Lysates
 

Recovery

The recovery of cGMP spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of cGMP were serially diluted with Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Preparation and Storage

• Storage

  Store the unopened product at -20 to -70 °C. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Do not use past expiration date.

Background: cGMP

Guanosine 3, 5-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) is formed via the action of guanylate cyclase on GTP. cGMP is present at levels typically 10-100 fold lower than cAMP in most tissues. A variety of stimuli including acetylcholine, insulin, oxytocin, serotonin, and histamine will cause an increase in cGMP levels. Various stimulators of guanylate cyclase (e.g. vasodilators) as well as peptides that relax smooth muscle also increase cGMP concentrations.
