Our full line of Clinical Chemistry Reagent kits are compatible with both manual and automated chemistry analyzers. Kits are available in both powder and ready-to-use liquid formats.
Method:
Kinetic
Testing Procedure:
Manual
Wavelength:
340 nm
Linearity:
500 U/L at 37°C
Expected Values:
Normal Range: 3‐35 U/L at 37°C
It is strongly suggested that each laboratory establish its own range of expected values.
Reagent Deterioration:
Discard if either reagent appears to be cloudy or contains particulate matter.
The working reagent should be discarded if the initial absorbance, read against distilled water at 340nm, is below 1.000.
Limitations of Procedure:
Hemolysis must be avoided as the concentration of ALT in red cells is roughly 5 times
that of serum. Bilirubin levels up to 40mg/dL and triglyceride levels up to 2000mg/dL
show no interference in this test.
