Human Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 3 (C1QTNF3) ELISA Kit

Manufactured by Assay Genie, this Sandwich ELISA kit is intended for the quantitative detection of human Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 3 (C1QTNF3) in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, using a colorimetric ELISA detection method.

According to the manufacturer, the kit has a detection range of 78-5000pg/mL and a sensitivity of 38.6pg/mL. Intra-assay CV is reported at 4.2% and inter-assay CV at 7.9%. The assay is specific for natural and recombinant human C1QTNF3. Linearity has been demonstrated across serum (109-118% at 1:2 to 99-109% at 1:16), EDTA plasma (104-113% to 101-110%), and heparin plasma (110-120% to 87-99%) dilution ranges. Recovery in serum averaged 84% (range 80-90%), and in plasma averaged 86% (range 80-92%).

C1QTNF3 is described as a key protein involved in regulating inflammatory responses and metabolic processes, with relevance to research into obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The target is also known by synonyms including CTRP3, CORS26, CORCS, C1ATNF3, and cartonectin, with UniProt accession Q9BXJ4 and NCBI Gene ID 114899. The kit is for research use only.
