Method Description
The intact fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) assay is a 2-site immunoenzymatic assay using 2 anti-human FGF23 mouse monoclonal antibodies. One antibody is coated onto microtiter wells and the other is alkaline phosphatase labeled. The signal generated is proportional to the concentration of intact FGF23 in the serum sample. The amount of intact FGF23 is determined by means of multipoint calibrator curve. Cross-reactivity of the assay with C-terminal FGF23 was evaluated in-house and determined to be no cross-reactivity with C-terminal FGF23 concentrations up to 230,680 pmol/L.(Unpublished Mayo method)
