Comparison of second- and third-generation enzyme immunoassays for detecting antibodies to hepatitis C virus.
Supplemental assays, such as recombinant immunoblot assays (RIBA), are used to confirm detection of antibodies to hepatitis C virus (HCV). However, due to their expense, they are not widely used in developing countries. The purpose of our study was to compare the results of second- and third-generation (G2 and G3, respectively) enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) and to resolve discordant results by usi...
متن کاملPerformance characteristics of three automated immunoassays for thyroid hormones
Background: Since the introduction of the first radioimmunoassay, several improvements have been made in the design of immunoassays such as method of antibody production, labeling, automation and detection technology. We performed an analytical evaluation of the new electrochemiluminescent immunoassay (ECLIA) for serum TSH, FT4 and T3 in the Elecsys 2010 immunoassay system and compared the resu...
متن کاملMulticenter comparison of automated procalcitonin immunoassays
OBJECTIVES A multicenter study to compare results of BRAHMS Kryptor PCT with those obtained using four BRAHMS-partnered procalcitonin (PCT) automated immunoassays (DiaSorin Liaison, BioMérieux Vidas, Roche Cobas E601 and Siemens Advia Centaur) and the Diazyme immunotubidimetric assay implemented on four clinical chemistry platforms (Abbott Architect c16000, Siemens Advia 2400, Roche Cobas C501 ...
متن کاملA Comparison of Anti-Nuclear Antibody Quantification Using Automated Enzyme Immunoassays and Immunofluorescence Assays
Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) have traditionally been evaluated using indirect fluorescence assays (IFA) with HEp-2 cells. Quantitative immunoassays (EIA) have replaced the use of HEp-2 cells in some laboratories. Here, we evaluated ANA in 400 consecutive and unselected routinely referred patients using IFA and automated EIA techniques. The IFA results generated by two independent laboratories ...
متن کاملCOMPARISON OF THREE AUTOMATED IMMUNOASSAYS FOR RUBELLA IgG
Introduction: The Serology section of the Microbiology Department performs Rubella immunity screening mainly from antenatal patients and staff health clinics, with a small number of tests being performed for the diagnosis of Rubella infection. Since the implementation of the NSW Department of Health Circular 2003/91 “Occupational Screening and Vaccination against Infectious Diseases”, the numbe...
