Description

The Randox lipase assay displayed a precision of <5% CV. Exceptional correlation The Randox lipase assay displayed an exceptional correlation coefficient of r=1.00 when compared against other commercially available methods. Fully automated protocols Fully automated protocols are available for a variety of clinical chemistry analysers. Further Benefits of the Randox Lipase Assay Colorimetric method. Liquid ready-to-use format for convenience and ease-of-use. Applications available detailing instrument-specific settings for the convenient use of the Randox lipase assay on a wide range of clinical chemistry analysers. Elevated lipase concentrations 3-to-4-fold greater than the upper normal limit is indicative of pancreatitis, however, the degree of elevations does not correlate with the severity of the disease 2, 3. In pancreatic dysfunction, lipase concentrations rise between 4 and 6 hours, peaking at 48 hours and returning to baseline within 8 to 14 days. It has a half-life of 6.7 to 13.7 hours in plasma. The half-life of amylase (another assay utilised in the diagnosis of pancreatic dysfunction) is less, however, lipase is filtered by the glomerulus and reabsorbed by the tubules which may contribute towards the longer half-life of lipase. Lipase offers a few advantages over amylase including: a slightly better specificity, greater sensitivity for patients presenting late, due to the longer half-life, and greater sensitivity in alcoholic pancreatitis 4.
