natriuretic peptide precursor B, BNP, brain type natriuretic peptide, natriuretic protein
Recovery
The recovery of mouse apo-A5 spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated. Samples were diluted prior to assay as directed in the Sample Preparation section.

Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples were spiked with high concentrations of mouse apo-A5 in various matrices and diluted with the Sample Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): CV%<8%
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays):CV%<10%
Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty assays to assess.
