Considerations for soluble Klotho measurements in human samples

Sample Processing Klotho Assay
Sample type and quality Methods of measurement (ELISA versus other)
Sample vintage (from sample collection to processing) Reagents
Sample vintage (from sample storage to measurement) Specificity of antibodies
Methods of collection Additives (e.g., protease inhibitors)
Methods of storage Interassay variability
Freeze-thaw cycles Intra-assay variability
High-throughput capacity
