Determination of the Serum Iron-binding Capacity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A colorimetric and an isotopic method for determining the iron-binding capacity are described, using only 1 ml. samples of plasma or serum. Both methods are simple, rapid and sensitive. Satisfactory results are obtained from frozen as well as from fresh samples.

Background and Objectives: Accumulation of iron is the most common consequences of repeated blood transfusions in β-thalassemia major patients. Iron chelating effects of alpha-lipoic acid have been reported by several studies. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of supplementation with alpha-lipoic acid, as a chelator, on serum iron and hematological indices in these patients. Ma...

متن کاملInfluence of iron saturation as a possible source of error in the immunoturbidimetric determination of serum transferrin.
The serum transferrin concentration is usually overestimated when assessed as total iron binding capacity, because iron binds not only to transferrin but also, non-specifically, to other serum proteins [l-3]. Transferrin concentration can be measured directly by immunochemical methods including: radial immunodiffusion [ 1,2,4-61, immunonephelometric assay [6,7] and immunoturbidimetric assay [8,...
متن کاملSemi-automated micromethod for estimating the unsaturated iron-binding capacity of serum using radioactive iron.
A semi-automated micromethod for the determination of the unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC) of serum using radioactive iron and magnesium carbonate as an adsorbing substance is presented. The method has the advantage of simplicity and speed. The determination of UIBC is carried out on 0.1 ml of serum in duplicate, using autodiluters, at the rate of up to 200 sera per day. The reproducibi...
