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 six times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Spike Recovery
The spike recovery was evaluated by spiking 3 levels of Mouse Granzyme B into health mouse serum sample. The un-spiked serum was used as blank in this experiment.
The recovery ranged from 107% to 132% with an overall mean recovery of 116%.

Serum/Plasma – Thirty samples from apparently healthy mice were evaluated for the presence of Granzyme B in this assay. No medical histories were available for the donors. n.d. = non-detectable. Samples measured below the sensitivity are considered to be non-detectable.
Product Data Sheet
Background: Granzyme B
Granzyme B is a member of the granzyme family of serine proteases found specifically in granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and natural killer (NK) cells. Granzyme B plays an essential role in granule-mediated apoptosis utilizing the substrates in this pathway, such as Caspase 3, Caspase 8 and Bid. Recent research indicates expanded Granzyme B functionality to include extracellular roles along with its classical pro-apoptotic function. It has been found that Granzyme B is an important mediator of skin injury, repair and inflammation through extracellular substrates including Laminin, VE-Cadherin, Fibronectin and the proteoglycans Aggrecan and Decorin.
As one of the five Granzymes (A, B, H, K and M) identified in the human genome, Granzyme B (32kDa) is the most widely researched in terms of its biological function and its utility in health and disease . It is synthesized as a precursor (247 residues) with a signal peptide (residues 1-18), a pro-peptide (residues 19-20), and a mature chain (residues 21-247). Once inside granules, Granzyme B is fully processed into the mature chain and becomes an active protease when the pro-peptide, Gly-Glu is removed from the N-terminus by cleavage with Cathepsin C. The protease activity of Granzyme B is tightly controlled by Serpin B9/ Protease Inhibitor 9. The amino acid sequence of human Granzyme B is 71%, 69%, and 68% identical to its canine, rat, and mouse counterparts, respectively.
Granzymes have been shown to modulate inflammation, and Granzyme B plasma levels have been found higher with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis when compared to healthy controls. This is in contrast to Granzyme A plasma levels which remain unchanged. Serum from patients with Crohn's disease have significantly higher Granzyme B levels than controls.
