Improved estimation of fructosamine, as a measure of glycated serum protein, with the Technicon RA-1000 analyzer.

Abstract:

:We present an improved fructosamine assay for use with the Technicon RA-1000 analyzer. Features of this assay include: specimen throughput of 100 per hour, within-batch CV of 1.5%, between-batch CV of 2.4%, standard curve linear up to 24.9 mmol of fructosamine per liter, and good correlation (r = 0.82) with hemoglobin A1.

  • Quantitative real-time PCR method for detection of B-lymphocyte monoclonality by comparison of kappa and lambda immunoglobulin light chain expression.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:An abnormal IgLkappa:IgLlambda ratio has long been used as a clinical criterion for non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas. As a first step toward a quantitative real-time PCR-based multimarker diagnostic analysis of lymphomas, we have developed a method for determination of IgLkappa:IgLlambda ratio in clinical sample...
