Answer

Thank you for contacting Abcam Technical Team and for taking the time to provide some useful details of the experiments. I am very sorry to hear that your customer is having problems with this product. We have tested ab108878 batch: GR57178 and it has passed QC. Though you have kindly provided some details, it would be much appreciated if I could get some more information which would help me identify the source of the problem. - How did the customer prepare the std points and the samples? - How did she dilute biotin? - How did she dilute SP? Thank you for your understanding and co-operation in this matter. I look forward to hearing from you and hope to solve this problem as soon as possible.
