Simplified 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...
متن کاملSerum iron and total iron-binding capacity compared with serum ferritin in assessment of iron deficiency.
Ferritin values for 250 selected sera were compared with values for iron, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and transferrin saturation, to assess the potential of the ferritin assay for the detection of latent iron deficiency. The specimens were grouped (50 in each group) according to their values for iron and TIBC. In Group 1 (low iron, high TIBC) the saturation and ferritin values both indi...
متن کاملAssociation of serum iron and total iron binding capacity in rural children
Original Article Background & objectives: To assess the nutritional iron status and anemia prevalence in rural children of Warangal district, A.P. INDIA. Methods: We have studied serum iron, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) relation ship in 50 rural children in the age group of 8-12 years. Results: As expected there was a highly significant increased levels of serum iron and a lower TIBC. The...
متن کاملTotal iron-binding capacity calculated from serum transferrin concentration or serum iron concentration and unsaturated iron-binding capacity.
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...
