BMP-5 ELISA Kit (Bone Morphogenetic Protein-5)

INTENDED USE

Human BMP-5 ELISA kit is a reliable quantitative procedure for measuring bone morphogenetic protein-5 (BMP5, BMP-5) in human serum, biological fluids, plasma and tissue homogenates. This assay has a minimum sensitivity detection limit of 0.094 ng/ml.

BACKGROUND

Bone morphogenetic protein 5 (BMP-5) is encoded by the BMP5 gene and can be mapped on the human chromosome 6.4. It is a member of the TGFβ superfamily, this superfamily is composed many growth and differentiation factors. The original identification of bone morphogenetic proteins was based on their ability to demineralized bone extract to induce endochondral osteogenesis (in vivo) in an extra skeletal site.

BMP-5 may play a certain role in specific cancers, it also like other bone morphogenetic proteins having ability to induce the development of bone and cartilage. Just like other BMP’s it can be inhibited by noggin and chordin, furthermore it is predominately expressed in the optic nerve head or in the trabecular meshwork, where it could have a role in normal function or in its development.

The standard used in the following assay is recombinant monomer that has a total molecular mass of 18KDa.

SENSITIVITY

The minimum sensitivity detection limit of bone morphogenetic protein-5 (BMP-5, BMP5) using current BMP-5 ELISA kit was approximately 0.094 ng/ml. The dynamic range for this assay is 0.156 – 10.0 ng/ml.

ASSAY CHARACTERISTICS

– Specificity: Highly specific for detecting BMP-5, no cross reactivity or interference between other bone morphogenetic protein-5 analogues was detected.
– Recovery: Serum (92 – 103%), EDTA Plasma (85 – 102%), Heparin Plasma (87 – 103%).
– Linearity: Serum (85 – 105%), EDTA Plasma (82 – 99%), Heparin Plasma (80 – 100%).
– Precison Intra-Assay: CV < 8%.
– Precison Inter-Assay: CV < 10%.
– Stability: Less than 10% within the expiration date.

I am a first time user and found that your instruction manual was very easy to follow. The insulin ELISA assay performed well and I was happy with the results that were generated.

J. Thomas
Senior Technician / Addenbrooke’s Hospital

I carried out a pilot study comparing the performance of many ELISA assay's from different suppliers and found your kits to be one of the better performers. We observed good linearity and tight replicates.
