Product Summary for Mouse/Rat/Porcine/Canine IGF-II/IGF2 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The Quantikine® Mouse/Rat/Porcine/Canine IGF-II Immunoassay is a 3.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure IGF-II in serum-free cell culture supernates and serum. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant IGF-II and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural IGF-II 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 natural IGF-II.

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 Mouse/Rat/Porcine/Canine IGF-II/IGF2 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of IGF-II spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Mouse Serum (n=4) | 105 | 86-124 |
| Rat Serum (n=4) | 84 | 78-89 |
| Serum-free Cell Culture Media (n=4) | 92 | 84-101 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of IGF-II were diluted with calibrator diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: IGF-II/IGF2
IGF-II/IGF2 (Insulin-like growth factor II; also multiplication-stimulating polypeptide/MSP and somatomedin-A) belongs to the insulin family of peptide growth factors. It is part of a complex system of growth and metabolic-regulating proteins that is particularly important during development. It has been associated with nervous system proliferation and differentiation, myelination, adrenal cortical proliferation, and skeletal growth and differentiation. In human, IGF2 is primarily synthesized by the liver, and circulates at high levels in both fetus and adult. In rodent, however, IGF2 levels drop after the perinatal period. IGF2 is produced by astrocytes, hepatocytes, osteoblasts, embryonic striated muscle cells plus Kupffer cells and Ito cells. IGF2 binds to IGF1R, Insulin R (IR)-type A, IGF1R:Insulin R-A hybrids, IGF2R, and IGF binding proteins 1-6. The first three receptors initiate downstream signaling events, the IGF2R sequesters local IGF2, and the six IGFBPs regulate IGF2 activity in various tissues.
