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 Serotonin/5-HT into health human serum sample. The un-spiked serum was used as blank in this experiment.
The recovery ranged from 87% to 121% with an overall mean recovery of 107%.

| Serum | 30 | 2.13-67.10 | 100 | 31.68 |
Serum/Plasma – Thirty samples from apparently healthy volunteers were evaluated for the presence of Serotonin/5-HT in this assay. No medical histories were available for the donors.
Product Data Sheet
Background: Serotonin/5-HT
5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is an indole derivative, abbreviated as 5-HT, with the chemical formula C10H12N2O and a molecular weight of 176.22. It is an important neurotransmitter with a variety of physiological regulatory effects, belongs to the biogenic amine class, and is widely found in mammalian tissues. It plays a key regulatory role in both humans and animals, [1] particularly in the central nervous system. Serotonin is mainly found in platelets and neurons of the central nervous system, and is synthesized from tryptophan through multiple biosynthetic steps.
