Rat Growth Differentiation Factor 5 (GDF5) ELISA Kit
The Rat Growth Differentiation Factor 5 (GDF5) ELISA Kit is a reliable and accurate tool for the quantitative measurement of GDF5 levels in rat biological samples, including serum, plasma, and tissue culture supernatants. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, ensuring precise and consistent results for a variety of research applications.GDF5 is a key factor in bone and joint development, playing a vital role in regulating growth, differentiation, and repair processes.
Dysregulation of GDF5 has been associated with various skeletal disorders, such as osteoarthritis and skeletal dysplasias, making it an important target for studying these conditions and potential therapeutic interventions.With the Rat GDF5 ELISA Kit, researchers can confidently study the role of GDF5 in skeletal development and diseases, ultimately advancing our understanding of musculoskeletal disorders and opening new possibilities for treatment strategies.

Linearity:
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of the index and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.

Intra-assay Precision:
Intra-Assay: CV <10%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision:
Inter-Assay: CV <12%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.
Stability:
The stability of ELISA kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage conditions. Note: To minimize unnecessary influences on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity and incubator temperatures should be strictly regulated. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same experimenter from the beginning to the end.
