Product Summary for Human APRIL/TNFSF13 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The Quantikine Human APRIL/TNFSF13 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human APRIL in cell culture supernates, serum, platelet-poor plasma, and saliva. It contains HEK293-expressed recombinant human APRIL and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human APRIL showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring human APRIL.
Product Specifications
Measurement
Quantitative ELISA
Detection Method

Reactivity
Human
Specificity
natural and recombinant human APRIL.
Cross-reactivity
< 0.5% cross-reactivity observed with available related molecules. < 50% cross-species reactivity observed with species tested.

Precision
Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision. Assays were performed by at least three technicians using two lots of components.

Recovery for Human APRIL/TNFSF13 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of human APRIL spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Media (n=4) | 99 | 96-105 |
| Platelet-poor EDTA Plasma (n=4) | 102 | 92-111 |
| Platelet-poor Heparin Plasma (n=4) | 104 | 100-109 |
| Serum (n=4) | 102 | 94-115 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of human APRIL were diluted with Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: APRIL/TNFSF13
A proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), also known as TALL-2 and TRDL-1, is a type II transmembrane protein that is a member of the TNF ligand superfamily (TNFSF13). APRIL expression is low in normal tissues, but is elevated in several types of tumors and transformed cell lines. APRIL stimulates proliferation of tumor cell lines and increases tumorigenicity in nude mice.
