Desferrioxamine provocative test: methodology for estimating iron and total iron binding capacity.
To the Editor: In our report entitled “Treatment of Cooley’s Anemia” (Blood 76:435, 1990), we described a desferrioxamine provocation test in which we measure serum iron and iron binding capacity following an infusion of the chelator. In the report, we failed to state clearly that we do not use standard colorimetric tests to make these measurements. The mild reducing agents used in most colorim...
متن کاملSimplified determination of serum iron and total iron-binding capacity.
2,4,6-Tripyridyl-s-triazine (TPTZ) is a color reagent for ferrous ion in the pH range 2 to 10,when ascorbic acid is used as the reducing agent. In this range TPTZ and ferrous ion combine in the ratio of two to one. Tris buffer is commonly used to maintain an alkaline pH, but it reacts with other reducing agents, rendering them ineffective. These observations suggested a method for the joint det...
متن کاملSerum iron and total iron-binding capacity as measured radiometrically.
With the increasing availability of programmable calculators and minicomputers, it is desirable to demystify radioimmunoassay calculations, and make them available to laboratories lacking massive computing facilities. Recently I modified the Hewlett-Packard 67/97 logit-log radioimmunoassay program to include weighting (submitted to the HP Program Library). I provide here a description of this p...

in borderline cases. The routine use of other biomar-ker assays, such as HFABP in conjunction with tGST activity, could provide complementary information on the potential allograft " viability ". This is illustrated by the fact that there was better segregation of donor categories (controlled vs uncontrolled) with HFABP than with tGST activity. This finding therefore warrants continued evaluati...
