| Assay Principle | quantitative | 
| Measurement | Sandwich | 
| Precision | | Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): CV%<8% |   |   |   |  | Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess. |   |  | Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): CV%<10% |   |   |   |  | Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty assays to assess. |   |   |  |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |  
  | 
| Linearity | | To assess the linearity of the assay, samples were spiked with high concentrations of rat IL-13 in various matrices and diluted with the Sample Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay. |  |   | Sample | Serum(n=4) |   |  | 1:1 | Average % | 91 |   |  | Range % | 88-93 |   |  | 1:2 | Average % | 104 |   |  | Range % | 99-107 |   |  | 1:4 | Average % | 93 |   |  | Range % | 88-97 |   |  | 1:8 | Average % | 99 |   |  | Range % | 91-103 |   |  
  | 
| Recovery | | The recovery of rat IL-13 spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated. Samples were diluted prior to assay as directed in the Sample Preparation section. |  |
 | Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range |   |  | Serum (n=5) | 95 | 89-98 |   |  | EDTA plasma (n=4) | 94 | 91-96 |   |  |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |  |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |
