Product Summary for Human M-CSF Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human M-CSF Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure human M-CSF in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. It contains CHO cell-expressed recombinant human M-CSF and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human M-CSF 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 naturally occurring human M-CSF.

Recovery for Human M-CSF Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of M-CSF spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Media (n=4) 99 90-107
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 100 93-106
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 99 93-106
Serum (n=4) 101 96-106

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of M-CSF were serially diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: M-CSF

M-CSF (CSF-1) is the primary regulator of macrophage survival, proliferation and differentiation. It is essential for macrophage-related functions such as bone resorption, vascular development, and innate immunity. It signals through M-CSF R on monocytes, tissue macrophages, and osteoblasts. Both M-CSF and its receptor can be expressed by tumor cells, allowing M-CSF to act as an autocrine growth factor for cancer cells. Full length M-CSF is expressed as a transmembrane dimer, but various additional forms can be generated by alternative splicing, differential glycosylation, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan modification, and proteolytic shedding.
