Performance Evaluation of ADVIA Centaur XPT

Workflow and Efficiency Advantages of the New ADVIA Centaur XPT Immunoassay System

Evaluation of the ADVIA Centaur TSH-3 assay.

An analytical evaluation of the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH-3) assay on the Bayer ADVIA Centaur immunoassay system was performed. General analytical requirements (linearity, resistance to typical interferences, absence of a carry-over effect) were fulfilled and reproducibility was satisfactory. Inter-assay coefficient of variation (CV) of a human serum pool with a concentration of 0.014 mU...

[Evaluation of Allergen Specific IgE assay on ADVIA Centaur Immunoassay System.].

BACKGROUND Allergen specific IgE (sIgE) assay is an important aid in the diagnosis and treatment of allergy. We evaluated the analytical performance of a quantitative chemiluminescence immunoassay for sIgE using the continuous random access ADVIA Centaur. METHODS Six ADVIA Centaur sIgE reagents for common inhalant allergens in Korea, d1, d2, e1, e5, t3, and t7, were evaluated for precision, d...

Performance evaluation of Siemens ADVIA Centaur and Roche MODULAR Analytics E170 Total 25-OH Vitamin D assays.

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the newly developed Roche MODULAR Analytics E170 Total Vitamin D and the Siemens ADVIA Centaur Vitamin D Total assays. MATERIALS AND METHODS Assays were evaluated using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute protocols. Split patient samples were compared with LC-MS/MS and DiaSorin LIAISON assays (n=79 including 15 specimens with detectable endogenous 25-OH vita...

Thyroid-stimulating hormone and free thyroxine on the ADVIA Centaur immunoassay system: a multicenter assessment of analytical performance.

OBJECTIVES We assessed the analytical performance of the TSH and FT4 assays on ADVIA Centaur in a multicenter national evaluation. DESIGN AND METHODS A precision study and a method comparison were performed. Reference values stated by the manufacturer were checked from 379 normal subjects. RESULTS For TSH and FT4, the intra-assay CVs were below 2.3 and 5.2%, respectively, and the inter-assa...
