The Quantikine Human IL-22 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human IL-22 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, and urine. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human IL-22 and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human IL-22 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 IL-22.

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

The recovery of human IL-22 spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of IL-22 were serially diluted with Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.
