Product Summary for Canine VEGF Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Canine VEGF Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure VEGF levels in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains Sf 21-expressed recombinant canine VEGF and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. Results obtained for naturally occurring canine VEGF showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural canine VEGF.

Recovery for Canine VEGF Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of canine VEGF spiked to three different levels throughout the range of the assay was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Media (n=4) 102 94-110
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 98 92-107
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 107 96-118
Serum (n=4) 103 87-113

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples were spiked with high concentrations of canine VEGF and diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: VEGF

VEGF (Vascular endothelial growth factor) is a potent mediator of both angiogenesis and vasculogenesis in the fetus and adult. It is required for regulating the proliferation, migration, and survival of embryonic endothelial cells and during wound healing and the female reproductive cycle in adults. Pathologically, it is involved in tumor development and tumor vascular leakage. VEGF binds to VEGF R1/Flt-1, VEGF R2/Flk-1/KDR, and Neuropilin-1. Multiple forms of VEGF are generated by alternative splicing and proteolysis.
