Assay Development
The first step in developing a diagnostic assay is demonstrating the feasibility or the ability to detect the analyte under optimized conditions. Next, the process of evaluation usually consists of determining analytical metrics, including analytical sensitivity, analytical selectivity, limit of detection (LoD), trueness and precision. These analytical statistics provide an abundance of information about the assay including the quantitative change in response for varying analyte amounts, the reportable range and linear response of the assay, the smallest analyte amount, how interferents affect the response, and the trueness and precision of the assay.
