Matrices listed below were spiked with certain level of Lp-a and the recovery rates were calculated by comparing the measured value to the expected amount of Lp-a in samples.

Linearity
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of Lp-a and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.
Lp-a ELISA Kit allows for the in vitro quantitative determination of Lp-a concentrations in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates and other biological fluids.
