Total Bile Acids (TBA) Test Kit (Olympus)

A liquid stable system, ready to use for both manual methods and is adaptable for many automated chemistry analysers. Diazyme Total Bile Acids Assay Kit is intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of total bile acids (TBA) in human serum. Total bile acids are metabolized in the liver and serve as a marker for normal and abnormal liver function. Serum total bile acids are increased in patients with liver disease. The assay has excellent sensitivity with a linear range from 0 - 180 uM. Diazyme's unique enzyme cycling method amplifies signal for accurate and fast measurement using a small sample up to 50% less than conventional NBT methods making it an excellent choice. The assay has excellent precision with Intra-Assay Precision CV% of <4% and Inter-Assay Precision CV% of <3%. The following substances normally present in serum produced less than 10% deviation at the listed concentrations: Triglycerides at 750 mg/dL, Ascorbic acid at 50 mg/dL, Bilirubin at 50 mg/dL and Hemoglobin at 500 mg/dL. Packaged for optimal operator convenience reagent transfer can be eliminated for most chemistry systems with instrument specific packaging options including RocheTM Hitachi 917 series, Beckman AU (400/600/640/680), Beckman Synchron CX, and DXC.
