The Risk from Anti-Thyroid Hormone Antibody Interference in Neonatal Congenital Hypothyroidism Screening
Neonatal congenital hypothyroidism screening is considered to be one of the most effective newborn screening strategies. Neonatal screening for congenital hypothyroidism involves the analysis of thyroid hormone and thyrotropin levels using an immunoassay based technique. Immunoassays are also prone to analytical problems such as assay interference. Immunoassays used for thyroid hormone measurem...
متن کاملHeterophilic antibody interference in commercial immunoassays; a screening study using paired native and pre-blocked sera.
BACKGROUND Heterophilic antibodies are still an important source of interference in immunoassays. We have conducted a screening study for interference in a panel of commercially available assays using two sera known to contain high titer Fc-reactive heterophilic antibodies. METHODS The sera were distributed to laboratories participating in the Nordic External Quality Assessment cooperation (E...
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 کاملEffect of piperacillin-tazobactam on clinical capillary zone electrophoresis of serum proteins.
immunoassay, whereas the Syva and Genix assays are one-step immunochromatographic assays for rapid detection of opiates in urine with a cutoff concentration of 300 mg/L. Information about rifampin cross-reactivity with these immunoassays was not available from the manufacturers. The only reported interference for rifampin is with the opiates kinetic interaction of microparticles in solution (KI...
متن کاملEfavirenz interference in urine screening immunoassays for tetrahydrocannabinol.
BACKGROUND It has been known for some time that the antiretroviral drug, efavirenz (EFV), cross-reacts in urine immunoassays for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Because published studies investigating this phenomenon are limited, cross-reactivity information for several immunoassays is lacking. Reports of possible false-positive THC results from clinicians conducting workplace testing prompted us t...
