Human Periostin ELISA Product Overview
The human Periostin ELISA kit is a 5.5 hour, 96-well sandwich ELISA for the quantitative determination of Periostin in human serum and plasma. The Periostin assay employs human serum-based standards to ensure the measurement of biologically reliable data.
The human Periostin kit uses highly purified, epitope mapped antibodies with characterized binding kinetics.
Human Periostin ELISA Assay Principle
The Periostin ELISA kit human is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative determination of periostin in human serum and plasma samples.
The figure below explains the principle of the Periostin ELISA:
Capture antibody: monoclonal mouse anti-human Periostin antibody
Detection antibody: polyclonal goat anti-human Periostin antibody, biotin labeled
Target antigen: human Periostin
In a first step, pre-diluted standard/control/sample and biotinylated polyclonal goat anti-human Periostin antibody are pipetted into the wells of the microtiter strips, which are pre-coated with mouse monoclonal anti-human Periostin antibody. Periostin present in the standard/control/sample binds to the pre-coated antibody in the well and forms a sandwich with the detection antibody. In a washing step all non-specific unbound material is removed. In a second step, the conjugate (streptavidin-HRP) is pipetted into the wells and reacts with the detection antibody. After another washing step, the substrate (TMB, tetramethylbenzidine) is pipetted into the wells. The enzyme-catalyzed color change of the substrate is directly proportional to the amount of Periostin present in the sample. This color change is detectable with a standard microtiter plate reader. A dose response curve of the absorbance (optical density, OD at 450 nm) vs. standard concentration is generated, using the values obtained from the standard. The concentration of human Periostin in the sample is determined directly from the dose response curve.
Human Periostin ELISA Typical Standard Curve
The figure below shows a typical standard curve for the human Periostin ELISA. The immunoassay is calibrated against recombinant human Periostin peptide:

Storage instructions: All reagents of the human Periostin ELISA kit are stable at 4°C (2-8°C) until the expiry date stated on the label of each reagent.
Sample Collection & Storage
Serum, EDTA plasma, heparın plasma, citrate plasma, urine and cell culture supernatant are suitable for use in this Periostin assay. Do not change sample type during studies. We recommend duplicate measurements for all samples, standards and controls. The sample collection and storage conditions listed are intended as general guidelines.
Serum & Plasma
Collect venous blood samples in standardized serum separator tubes (SST) or standardized blood collection tubes using EDTA, heparın or citrate as an anticoagulant. For serum samples, allow samples to clot for 30 minutes at room temperature. Perform separation by centrifugation according to the tube manufacturer’s instructions for use. Assay the acquired samples immediately or aliquot and store at -25°C or lower. Lipemic or haemolyzed samples may give erroneous results. Samples are stable for four freeze-thaw cycles. Thawed samples should be assayed as soon as possible.
Urine
Note: the experiments performed to measure Periostin in urine samples did not undergo a full validation according to FDA/ICH/EMEA guidelines. However, our performance check suggests that urine samples can be measured with this ELISA.
Aseptically collect the first urine of the day (mid-stream), voided directly into a sterile container. Centrifuge to remove particulate matter, assay immediately or aliquot and store at -25°C or lower. Do not freeze-thaw samples more than four times. Thawed samples should be assayed as soon as possible.
Cell Culture Supernatant
Note: the experiments performed to measure Periostin cell culture supernatant samples did not undergo a full validation according to FDA/ICH/EMEA guidelines. However, our performance check suggests that cell culture supernatant samples can be measured with this ELISA.
Remove particulates by centrifugation and assay immediately or aliquot and store samples at
-25°C or lower. Do not freeze-thaw samples more than four times. Thawed samples should be assayed as soon as possible.
Reagent Preparation
Wash Buffer
1. | Bring the WASHBUF concentrate to room temperature (18-26°C). Crystals in the buffer concentrate will dissolve at room temperature. |
2. | Dilute the WASHBUF concentrate 1:20, e.g. 50 ml WASHBUF + 950 ml distilled or deionized water. Only use diluted WASHBUF when performing the assay. |
The diluted WASHBUF is stable up to one month at 4°C (2-8°C).
Standards & Controls
1. | Pipette 200 µl of distilled or deionized water into each standard (STD) and control (CTRL)vial. The exact concentration is printed on the label of each vial. |
2. | Leave at room temperature (18-26°C) for 20 min. Vortex gently. |
Reconstituted STDs and CTRLs are stable at -25°C or lower until expiry date stated on the label. STDs and CTRLs can undergo one freeze-thaw cycle.
STDs/CTRLs must be diluted 1+50 with ASYBUF (assay buffer) prior to the assay, e.g. 10 µl STD/CTRL + 500 µl ASYBUF.
Note: 150 µl pre-diluted STD/CTRl is needed per well.
Sample Preparation
Bring samples to room temperature and mix samples gently to ensure the samples are homogenous. We recommend duplicate measurements for all samples.
Serum and plasma samples must be diluted 1+50 with ASYBUF (assay buffer) prior to the assay, e.g. 10 µl sample + 500 µl ASYBUF. 1+50 diluted serum and plasma samples for which the OD still exceeds the highest point of the standard range can be further diluted with ASYBUF.
Note: 150 µl pre-diluted sample is required per well.
Use urine and cell culture supernatant samples undiluted. Urine and cell culture supernatant samples for which the OD exceeds the highest point of the standard range can be diluted 1+50 with ASYBUF (assay buffer).
Human Periostin ELISA Assay Protocol
Read the entire protocol before beginning the assay.
1. | Bring samples and reagents to room temperature (18-26°C). |
2. | Mark positions for STD/CTRL/SAMPLE (standard/control/sample) on the protocol sheet. |
3. | Take microtiter strips out of the aluminum bag. Store unused strips with desiccant at 4°C in the aluminum bag. Strips are stable until expiry date stated on the label. |
4. | Add 150 µl pre-diluted (1+50) STD/CTRL/SAMPLE into the respective wells, swirl gently.
Note: use urine and cell culture supernatant samples undiluted. |
5. |
Cover the plate tightly and incubate for 2 hours at room temperature (18-26°C). |
6. | Aspirate and wash wells 5 x with 300 µl diluted WASHBUF (wash buffer). After the final wash, remove the remaining WASHBUF by strongly tapping plate against a paper towel. |
7. | Add 150 µl AB (biotinylated anti-human Periostin antibody, green cap) into each well, swirl gently. |
8. | Cover tightly and incubate for 2 hours at room temperature. |
9. | Aspirate and wash wells 5 x with 300 µl diluted WASHBUF. After the final wash, remove the remaining WASHBUF by strongly tapping plate against a paper towel. |
10. | Add 150 µl CONJ (conjugate, amber cap) into each well. Swirl gently. |
11. | Cover tightly and incubate for 1 hour at room temperature. |
12. | Aspirate and wash wells 5 x with 300 µl diluted WASHBUF. After the final wash, remove the remaining WASHBUF by strongly tapping plate against a paper towel. |
13. | Add 150 µl SUB (substrate, blue cap) into each well. |
14. | Incubate for 30 min at room temperature in the dark. |
15. | Add 50 µl STOP (stop solution, white cap) into each well. Swirl gently. |
16. | Measure absorbance immediately at 450 nm with reference 630 nm, if available. |
Calculation of Results
Construct a standard curve from the absorbance read-outs of the standards using commercially available software capable of generating a four-parameter logistic (4-PL) fit. Alternatively, plot the standards’ concentration on the x-axis against the mean absorbance for each standard on the y-axis and draw a best fit curve through the points on the graph. Curve fitting algorithms other than 4-PL have not been validated and will need to be evaluated by the user.
Obtain sample concentrations from the standard curve. If required, pmol/l can be converted into pg/ml by applying a conversion factor (1 pg/ml = 0.011 pmol/l (MW: 91 kDa)). Sample dilutions above 1+50 have to be considered when calculating the final concentration of the sample. For undiluted samples, divide values by 50 to obtain the final sample concentration.
The quality control (QC) protocol supplied with the kit shows the results of the final release QC for each kit lot at production date. Data for OD obtained by customers may differ due to various influences including the normal decrease of signal intensity throughout shelf life. However, this does not affect validity of results as long as an OD of 1.50 or higher is obtained for the standard with the highest concentration and the values of the CTRLs are within the target range (see labels).

Calibration
The human Periostin immunoassay is calibrated against recombinant human Periostin peptide.
Human Periostin ELISA Detection Limit & Sensitivity
To determine the sensitivity of the human Periostin ELISA, experiments measuring the lower limit of detection (LOD) and the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) were conducted.
The LOD, also called the detection limit, is the lowest point at which a signal can be distinguished above the background signal, i.e. the signal that is measured in the absence of Periostin, with a confidence level of 99%. It is defined as the mean back calculated concentration a Periostin-free sample (three independent measurements) plus three times the standard deviation of the measurements.
The LLOQ, or sensitivity of an assay, is the lowest concentration at which an analyte can be accurately quantified. The criteria for accurate quantification at the LLOQ are an analyte recovery between 75 and 125% and a coefficient of variation (CV) of less than 25%. The lowest concentration of Periostin, which meets both criteria, is reported as the LLOQ.
The following values were determined for the human Periostin ELISA:
LOD | 20 pmol/l |
LLOQ | 62.5 pmol/l |
Human Periostin ELISA Precision
The precision of an ELISA is defined as its ability to measure the same concentration consistently within the same experiments carried out by one operator (within-run precision or repeatability) and across several experiments using the same samples but conducted by several operators using different ELISA lots (in-between-run precision or reproducibility).
Within-Run Precision
Within-run (intra-assay) precision was assessed by measuring two samples of known concentrations five times within one human Periostin ELISA lot by one operator.

Sample 1 | 5 | 249 | 7.3 | 3 |
Sample 2 | 5 | 2008 | 52 | 3 |
In-Between-Run Precision
In-between-run (inter-assay) precision was assessed by measuring two samples of known concentrations twelve times within multiple human Periostin ELISA lots by multiple operators.

Sample 2 | 10 | 1996 | 111.5 | 6 |
Human Periostin ELISA Accuracy
The accuracy of an ELISA is defined as the precision with which it can recover samples of known concentrations.
The recovery of the human Periostin ELISA was measured by adding recombinant Periostin to human samples containing a known concentration endogenous Periostin. The % recovery of the spiked concentration was calculated as the percentage of measured compared over the expected value.
This table shows the summary of the recovery experiments in the human Periostin ELISA in different sample matrices:

Human Periostin ELISA Dilution Linearity & Parallelism
Tests of dilution linearity and parallelism ensure that both endogenous and recombinant samples containing Periostin behave in a dose dependent manner and are not affected by matrix effects. Dilution linearity assesses the accuracy of measurements in diluted human samples spiked with known concentrations of recombinant analyte. By contrast, parallelism refers to dilution linearity in human samples and provides evidence that the endogenous analyte behaves the same way as the recombinant one. For dilution linearity and parallelism are assessed for each sample type and are considered acceptable if the results are within 20% of the expected concentration.
Dilution Linearity
Dilution linearity was assessed by serially diluting human samples spiked with 10 000 pmol/l recombinant human Periostin.
The table below shows the mean recovery serially diluted recombinant human Periostin in serum and citrate plasma. The reference value indicates the sample concentration before the spike.

Human Periostin ELISA Specificity
The specificity of an ELISA is defined as its ability to exclusively recognize the analyte of interest.
The specificity of the human Periostin ELISA was shown by characterizing both the capture and the detection antibodies through epitope mapping and affinity measurements. In addition, the specificity of the ELISA was established through competition experiments, which measure the ability of the antibodies to exclusively bind Periostin.
This assay recognizes recombinant and endogenous human Periostin.
Epitope Mapping
Antibody binding sites were determined by epitope mapping using microarray analysis (Pepperprint GmbH).
The monoclonal capture antibody was determined to bind to a linear epitope close to the N-terminus in the FAS4 domain of Periostin (AA542-549 of Q15063 (Uniprot ID), isoform 1).
The polyclonal detection antibody recognizes multiple linear epitopes distributed over the Periostin molecule (A113-121, AA125-132, AA244-250, AA694-701, AA764-771 of Q15063 (Uniprot ID), isoform 1).
A detailed description of the localization of epitops recognized by the antibodies used in this Periostin ELISA has been published:

Capture Antibody:
The capture antibody, which is a monoclonal mouse antibody, binds to the sequence KGMTSEER (AA542-549 of Q15063 (Uniprot ID), isoform 1).
Detection Antibody:
The detection antibody, which is a polyclonal goat antibody, binds to the following AA sequences of Q15063 (Uniprot ID), isoform 1:
Epitope | Sequence |
1. | TQRYSDASK (AA113-121) |

4. | KTEGPTLT (AA694-701) |
5. | RISTGGGE (AA764-771) |
Competition of Signal
Competition experiments were carried out by pre-incubating human samples containing endogenous Periostin with an excess of capture antibody (AB). The concentration measured in this mixture was then compared to a reference value, which was obtained from the same sample without the pre-incubation step. Mean competition in serum samples was 98%.

Isoforms
This assay is optimized to detect all known isoforms of human Periostin.
Cross-Reactivity
Due to the high sequence homology between human Periostin and Periostin of other species, the antibodies utilized in the assay may cross react with mouse, rat, cynomolgous monkey, dog and cat Periostin.
Sample Stability
Sample Preparation
We recommend separating plasma or serum by centrifugation as soon as possible, e.g. 20 min at 2,000 x g, preferably at 4°C (2-8°C). Samples can be stored at 4°C (2-8°C) overnight. For long term storage, aliquot the acquired plasma or serum samples and store at -25°C or lower.
Freeze-Thaw Stability
The stability of endogenous Periostin was tested by comparing Periostin measurements in samples that had undergone four freeze-thaw cycles (F/T). The mean recovery of sample concentration after four freeze-thaw cycles is 96%.
