A method for deriving normal ranges from laboratory specimens applied to uric acid in males.

چکیده
Plasma specimens from male blood donors gave a normal range for uric acid concentration of 3.3 to 7.5 mg/100 ml. Specimens from male outpatients, which were received in the laboratory for the analysis of urea but not of uric acid and proved to have normal concentrations of urea, showed a positively skewed distribution of values for uric acid from which a ;normal range' of 3.2 to 7.6 mg/100 ml was derived. We suggest that specimens from outpatients selected in the way described here may prove to be a convenient source of data for determining the normal range of other substances.

In this study a novel method was developed to fabricate cadmium sulfide nanoparticles/multiwalled carbon nanotubes composite modified gold electrode (CdSNPs/MWCNTS/AuE) to measure trace amounts of norepinephrine(NE), indomethacin (IND), and uric acid (UA) simultaneously. Electrochemical investigations were carried out using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and chron...

Background: Organic acids refer to a family of compounds that are intermediates in a variety of metabolic pathways. Many organic acids are present in urine from clinically normal individuals. Elevated levels of urine organic acids cause to the organic acidurias, disorders in which some metabolic pathways in organic acid metabolism are blocked. The present work identified major and minor urinary...

In the present work, an efficient modified carbon-ceramic electrode by multi-walled carbon nanotubes/ionic liquid nanocomposite (MWCNTs/IL/CCE) was prepared through a simple and repeatable procedure. The introduced modified electrode was used for the study of the electrochemical behaviour and determination of tryptophan (Trp) in the presence of uric acid (UA) using cyclic voltammetry (CV), diff...
متن کاملDetermination of reference ranges using medical laboratory date
In order to have reliable reference ranges and to minimize the effects of variables such as the procedure of specimen collection, geographical location, dietary habits, life style and possible errors during the performance of tests, it is recommended that each medical laboratory establish it's own reference values. Idealy, the reference ranges Should be determined by analysis of specimens from...

This study was designed to establish reference ranges for serum uric acid among healthy adult Assamese population. Samples from 1470 aged 35-86 years were used to establish age and sex related reference range by the centile method (central 95 percentile) for serum uric acid level. There were 51% (n = 754) males and 49% (n = 716) females; 75.9% (n = 1115) of them were from urban area and the res...
