Hepatitis D Virus (HDV) Antigen, BioAssay™ ELISA Kit (Human)

The Hepatitis D Virus (HDV) Antigen, BioAssay™ ELISA Kit is a qualitative in vitro enzyme immunoassay for the detection of human Hepatitis D virus (HDV) antigen in serum and plasma.

Test Principle:
This BioAssay™ employs the qualitative enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with antibody. Samples are pipetted into the wells with antibody conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP). Any HDV antigen present is bound by the immobilized antibody. Following a wash to remove any unbound reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of human hepatitis D virus (HDV) antigen bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Specificity:
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of human hepatitis D virus (HDV) antigen. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between human hepatitis D virus (HDV) antigen and analogues was observed.

Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the crossreactivity detection between human HDV and all the analogs. Therefore, crossreaction may still exist.

Precision:
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay) %CV: <15%
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess.

Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays) %CV: <15%
Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty assays to assess.
