BMP-6 is a secreted signaling protein and a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFB) superfamily. As one of several bone morphogenic proteins, it can induce ectopic bone and cartilage formation. BMP6 is able to induce all osteogenic markers in mesenchymal stem cells.

Analytical Measuring Range

Please note: the technical data reported below refers to the measured value in the in vitro validation assays. The calibrator curve below shows the performance of the assay with the estimated sensitivity and dynamic range parameters indicated. These curves are generated during the assay validation process using recombinant antigens. Please note that when analyzing biological samples the data generated will be given in the form of relative quantification (NPX values) and cannot be converted to absolute protein concentrations. For more info about NPX measurements, please visit our FAQ page (https://www.olink.com/question/what-is-npx).

Precision

    • Within run precision Coefficient of Variation (CV)
    • 21%
    • Between run precision Coefficient of Variation (CV)
    • 15%

Precision (repeatability) is calculated from linearized NPX values over LOD.
