Rapid fluorometric assay of bilirubin and bilirubin binding capacity in blood of jaundiced neonates: comparisons with other methods.

Abstract:

:The concentrations of total blood bilirubin, albumin-bound bilirubin, and the reserve and total bilirubin binding capacities of 35 neonatal blood samples (28 patients) were determined by automated front-face fluorometry ((hematofluorometer). These values were compared to results of diazo determinations, Sephadex gel filtration, and peroxidase-oxidation methods. Total blood bilirubin level by fluorometry agreed well with the total plasma bilirubin level by diazotization (r = .96, sigma = 1.7 mg/100 ml). Albumin-bound bilirubin concentrations by fluorometry also correlated well with diazo values (r = .95, sigma = 1.9 mg/100 ml) and were slightly lower than the total blood bilirubin concentrations. Values for total bilirubin binding capacity determined by fluorometry agreed well with results obtained for the same specimens by Sephadex gel filtration (n = 28, r = .97, sigma = 1.8 mg/100 ml) and by peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation (n = 25, r = .97, sigma = 1.7 mg/100 ml). The agreement among the results obtained by the three methods indicates a well-defined in vitro end point at which available primary or "tight" binding sites on albumin are saturated with bilirubin. In this clinical experience the coefficient of variation of results with the hematofluorometer was 8.4% for total blood bilirubin and 6.5% for total binding capacity. A comparison of "sick" with "well" infants revealed that the fraction of bilirubin not bound to albumin was significantly different for these two groups. The assays made with the hematofluorometer are quick (10 to 15 minutes) and require only a small quantity (approximately 150 microliters) of blood.
