Determination of parallelism and nonparallelism in bioassay dilution curves

Abstract: There is a lack of consensus among investigators who use a variety of immunoassay techniques (e.g., enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay [ELISA] and radioimmunoassay) regarding the protocols for describing and forming standard reference or calibration curves and interpolating serum antibody concentrations. This confounds the issue of detecting the presence or absence of parallelism between standard reference serum and serially diluted serum sample curves. These curves must be parallel to support the assumption th… Show more

“…The mean percent change in dilution-corrected concentration between contiguous dilutions was 13.6 and 11.1% for PfHRP2 and P. falciparum pLDH, respectively, as determined over 66 independent runs. These data are within the acceptance criteria of +/-20% (38). However, at concentrations close to the ULOQ, the percent change showed an overestimation greater than 20% for both PfHRP2 and P. falciparum pLDH (Table 2).…”

“…IgG antibody concentrations were calculated using a 4-parameter logistic curve-fitting analysis [32] against the standard reference curve. Multiple data points obtained from dilutions that yielded OD values in the linear portion of the curve were averaged, and IgG geometric mean concentrations (GMC) were calculated from wells where no thiocyanate was added.…”

“…The samples and the calibration curves were considered parallel over the range of the assay when the intra-assay CV was <20%. 10 Three automated dilution methods were compared. In the first method, the samples were prediluted two-and fourfold with FVIIIdeficient plasma (Siemens) as recommended by Cinotti et al 6 In the second method, the samples were prediluted with diluent buffer.…”
