Analytical and clinical performance of improved Abbott IMx CA 125 assay: comparison with Abbott CA 125 RIA.
We compared the improved Abbott IMx cancer antigen (CA) 125 assay (cat. no. 7A89) with the Abbott CA 125 RIA. Serum specimens were from healthy perimenopausal women (n = 124) and from patients with benign gynecologic and nongynecologic diseases (n = 124), ovarian carcinoma (n = 104), or other malignancies (n = 193). The IMx assay detected as little as 0.193 kAU/L CA 125 (AU = arbitrary Abbott u...
متن کاملClinical efficacy of the Abbott Tacrolimus II assay for the IMx.
Monitoring tacrolimus is essential to maintain therapeutic concentrations. Performance of the new Abbott Tacrolimus assay (FK II) was evaluated and compared to the original tacrolimus assay (FK I). 189 trough whole blood samples from transplant cases were included in the study. Samples (n = 117) with FK I concentrations > 5 ng/mL were reanalyzed with the FK II assay. Patient samples (n = 43) th...
متن کاملFully automated assay of glycohemoglobin with the Abbott IMx analyzer: novel approaches for separation and detection.
We describe a novel assay for measuring glycohemoglobin directly from anticoagulated whole blood with the Abbott IMx analyzer. The glycohemoglobin is labeled with a soluble polyanionic affinity reagent and the anionic complex is then captured with a cationic solid-phase matrix. Glycohemoglobin is quantified by measuring the quenching by heme of the static fluorescence from an added fluorophore....
متن کاملAutomated enzyme immunoassay for lutropin with the Abbott IMx analyzer.
An automated enzyme immunoassay for human lutropin for use with the Abbott IMx analyzer is described. The assay provides results in approximately 40 min with a sensitivity of 0.25 int. units of LH per liter for up to 23 serum or plasma samples. Cross-reactivity with follitropin (2000 int. units/L) and thyrotropin (2 int. units/L) was negligible; it was 0.016% with human choriogonadotropin (1 X ...
متن کاملMulticenter evaluation of the Abbott LCx Mycobacterium tuberculosis ligase chain reaction assay.
Four Australian hospital laboratories evaluated the performance of the Abbott LCx Mycobacterium tuberculosis assay with 2,347 specimens (2,083 respiratory and 264 nonrespiratory specimens) obtained from 1, 411 patients. A total of 152 specimens (6.5%) were culture positive for Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC); of these, 79 (52%) were smear positive. After resolution of discrepant data,...
