| PON1

Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) also known as Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase 1, A esterase, homocysteine thiolactonase or serum aryldialkylphosphatase 1, is an enzyme that is encoded by the PON1 gene.Paraoxonase 1 has esterase and more specifically paraoxonase activity.PON1 is the first discovered member of a multigene family also containing PON2 and PON3, the genes for which are located adjacent to each other on chromosome 7. PON1 on HDL (different from soluble PON1) is responsible for significant atheroprotection rendered by the HDL.PON1 is responsible for hydrolysing organophosphate pesticides and nerve gasses. Polymorphisms in the PON1 gene significantly affect the catalytic ability of the enzyme.
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

 

Concentration (ng/mL)	1000	500	250	125	62.5	31.25	15.62	0
OD	2.36	1.78	1.23	0.79	0.46	0.29	0.17	0.09
Corrected OD	2.27	1.69	1.14	0.7	0.37	0.2	0.08	-

 

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%
 

| Recovery

The recovery of Human PON1 spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Serum(n=8)	84-101	96
Plasma(n=8)	92-105	102
Cell Culture Supernates(n=8)	96-108	105

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human PON1 and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)	Cell Culture Supernates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	88-96	90-110
	Average (%)	91	93	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108	105-115
	Average (%)	94	98	108
