Prevention of interference by dextran with biuret-type assay of serum proteins.
In assay of serum proteins by use of the biuret reaction, dextran can cause turbidity by formation of an insoluble complex of dextran with copper and tartrate (or EDTA) in strongly alkaline solution. Whether or not the turbidity occurs depends on the tartrate concentration: turbidity is maximal at about 10 g/L, absent at 20 g/L or more, and only slight and delayed at 4 g/L. Two biuret reagents,...
متن کاملEffects of dextran on five biuret-based procedures for total protein in serum.
We evaluated the effect of dextran on values for total protein in serum as measured by the biuret method with five widely used automated instruments: the American Monitor Parallel; the Du Pont aca II; the Roche Cobas-Bio; the Kodak Ektachem 400; and the Beckman Astra 8. Dextran concentrations as great as 25 or 30 g/L had relatively little or no influence on total protein measurements by the lat...
متن کاملAssay of cerebrospinal fluid protein: a rate biuret method evaluated.
We evaluated a rate colorimetric method (Beckman) for measuring total protein in cerebrospinal fluid. The automated instrument we used was Beckman's ASTRA TM. A 100-microL sample of spinal fluid is introduced into the biuret reagent in the reaction cell and the increase in absorbance at 545 nm is monitored for 20.5 s. Solid-state circuits determine the rate of alkaline biuret-protein chelate fo...
متن کاملPositive interference in Radioimmunoassay determination of serum total T3
Introduction: Determination of thyrotropin, total and free thyroxine and triiodothyronine are widely used as diagnostic methods for thyroid function evaluation. There have been numerous reports of interferences in thyroid hormone immunoassays. Herein, a prominent positive interference is reported for a radioimmunoassay kit of total triiodothyronine. Materials and Methods: In this study, a total...
متن کاملDextran interference in biuret-based assays for serum proteins.
We found the Easy very easy to run and without te#{233}hnique-dependent steps in the procedure. Operators need not have a high level of skill. Calibration is stable for one month, except for the ion-selective electrodes, which must be calibrated every two days. In conclusion, we found the Easy satisfactory in operational and analytical performance. The analyzer is well suited for use in the eme...
