For the in vitro quantitative determination of glucose in human serum.
Number of Tests:
400 tests
8 x 50 mL bottles
Testing Procedure:
Manual
Reconstituted Stability:
30 days at 2-8°C
48 hours at 15-30°C
Wavelength:
340 nm
Linearity:
600 mg/dL at 37°C
Expected Values:
65-100 mg/dL
It is recommended that each laboratory establish its own range of expected values.
Reagent Deterioration:
Do not use if: (1) Reagent has an absorbance greater than 0.30 when measured against
water at 340 nm;(2) The reagent fails to recover stated control values or meet stated
linearity;(3) The reconstituted reagent develops turbidity, indicating contamination.
Limitations of Procedure:
A "Sample Blank" should be prepared if the sample is moderately lipemic or icteric.
Extremely hemolyzed samples should not be used for the glucose assay.
