INFORMATION
| Full Name | S-100B is a member of highly homologous Ca2+ binding proteins family that possess two EF-hand motifs. The family of S100 proteins consists of 19 members. Most S100 proteins exist as dimers (frequently homodimers) within cells. S-100B may function in neurite extension, proliferation of melanoma cells, stimulation of Ca2+ fluxes, inhibition of PKC-mediated phosphorylation, astrocytosis and axonal proliferation, and inhibition of microtubule assembly. In the adult organism it is usually elevated due to nervous system damage, which makes it a potential clinical marker. |

RECOVERY
5 different levels of target protein spiked in samples were evaluated for recovery experiments to determine the range of recovery and calculate the average recovery rate.
LINEARITY
5 different levels of target protein spiked in samples were evaluated for recovery experiments to determine the range of recovery and calculate the average recovery rate. Subsequently, the 5 samples were diluted to 2-fold, 4-fold, 8-fold, and 16-fold 10 concentrations, and recovery experiments were performed again to evaluate the range and average recovery rate at different dilution factors.
PRECISION(%)
Intra-assay precision (Precision within an assay): Low, mid range and high levels of the samples were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): Low, mid range and high levels of the samples were tested on 3 different plates, 20 replicates in each plate, respectively.
