Background
GFAP (Glial fibrillary acidic protein) is a type III intermediate filament protein. It is the major component of astrocyte intermediate filament. Defects in GFAP are a cause of Alexander disease. Alexander disease is a rare disorder of the central nervous system. It is a progressive leukoencephalopathy whose hallmark is the widespread accumulation of Rosenthal fibers which are cytoplasmic inclusions in astrocytes. At the amino acid sequence level, human GFAP shares 91% and 90% identity with rat and mouse GFAP, respectively.

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 Mammal GFAP into health serum sample. The un-spiked serum was used as blank in this experiment.
The recovery ranged from 96% to 104% with an overall mean recovery of 101%.
The recovery ranged from 96% to 104% with an overall mean recovery of 101%.

Serum/Plasma – Thirty samples from apparently healthy volunteers were evaluated for the presence of GFAP in this assay. No medical histories were available for the donors.
