Background
The Lipocalin family comprises a diverse group of mostly secreted soluble proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands and act as transporters, carrying small molecules to specific cells. Lipocalins are related by possessing an 8-stranded beta-barrel structure. Lipocalin-1, also named tear lipocalin (TL), von Ebners gland protein (VEG) and tear pre-albumin, binds a large number of hydrophobic molecules and exhibits cysteine proteinase inhibitor and endonuclear activities. Lipocalin-2, also known as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), is a component of granules in neutrophils from tissues that are normally exposed to microorganisms and is upregulated during inflammation. Lipocalin-2 can form homodimers and can heterodimerize with the neutrophil gelatinase MMP-9.

Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested six times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Spike Recovery
The spike recovery was evaluated by spiking 3 levels of human Lipocalin-2/NGAL into health human serum sample. The un-spiked serum was used as blank in this experiment.
The recovery ranged from 92% to 105% with an overall mean recovery of 97%.
The recovery ranged from 92% to 105% with an overall mean recovery of 97%.

Serum/Plasma – Thirty samples from apparently healthy volunteers were evaluated for the presence of Lipocalin-2/NGAL in this assay. No medical histories were available for the donors.
