Test principle
This assay employs the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with goat-anti-rabbit antibody. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with an antibody specific for Testosterone and Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugated Testosterone. The competitive inhibition reaction is launched between with HRP labeled Testosterone and unlabeled Testosterone with the antibody. A substrate solution is added to the wells and the color develops in opposite to the amount of Testosterone in the sample. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Specificity
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of General T. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between General T and analogues was observed.
Recovery
Matrices listed below were spiked with certain level of recombinant General T and the recovery rates were calculated by comparing the measured value to the expected amount of General T in samples.
Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)
Three samples of known concentration were tested in forty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.
CV (%) = SD/meanX100
Intra-Assay: CV<8%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%
Linearity
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of General T and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.
