  C. Precaution for use  
  1) What is the storage condition for test samples?  
    Use the freshest available serum samples. If you cannot immediately test your samples, store them below -70°C. Avoid thaw/refreeze cycles.  
    In our lab tests, the activity of a given sample decreases to 86.6% after 13 days in the freezer. Samples may remain stable for about three years at -80°C but at -20°C the stability cannot be guaranteed.  
    We have confirmed up to six thaw/refreeze cycles may not affect the activity, but we recommend freezing your samples in small batches to minimize the thaw/refreeze cycles.  
       
  2) Can I use plasma samples?  
    While both plasma and serum may be tested using the FGF-23 ELISA kit, we recommend using serum.  
       
  3) Can I use the kit to test animal samples?  
    The FGF-23 ELISA kit may be used to measure mouse, rat or monkey blood FGF-23 levels.  
       
  4) Does the kit contain any mercury-based preservatives?  
    The FGF-23 ELISA kit does not use mercury-based preservatives such as thimerosal. The standard solution, diluting solution, enzyme labeled antibody solution and concentrated washing solution use KathonTM CG as the preservative.  
       
  5) Operational precautions  
    Calibration curve must be prepared for each test run.  
    If multiple samples are tested, the reaction times must be kept uniform.  
    The first-order reaction must be carried out while stirring the plate. The plate should be sealed before stirring.  
    The following precautions must be observed in the washing cycles:  
       Do not leave plates with washing solution in them.  
       Once sufficiently removing the washing solution from the wells, immediately proceed to the next step.
