Quality assessment of the Reflotron System. A blood chemistry reagent strip analyser.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We tested the accuracy of the Reflotron System by comparing results given by this system for estimations of glucose, SGOT, SGPT, cholesterol and triglycerides on patients samples which were already analysed on either an autoanalyser HITACHI 705 or manually on CLIN ICON 4010. Reflotron estimations correlated well with both Hitachi and Clinicon estimations and the strips gave reproducible results. We for small laboratories in our expanding rural health conclude that this or similar systems will be ideal services (JPMA 38: 205, 1988).

Use of the Reflotron system for cholesterol assay in capillary blood, venous blood, and serum--evaluation of accuracy and lot-to-lot reagent comparability.
Since its recalibration in 1987, the Reflotron "dry-chemistry" cholesterol method can produce accurate results. Here we report how cholesterol concentrations in venous blood, plasma, and serum determined with Reflotron compare with values determined for fingerstick samples. When no EDTA is used in the latter, accurate results may meet the WHO/CDC criterion of a maximum bias less than or equal t...
متن کاملComparison of the use of a dry chemistry analyser in primary care in Norway and the United Kingdom.
The results of a quality assessment survey of the most commonly used dry chemistry instrument in primary care in Norway and the United Kingdom, the Reflotron (Boehringer), are reported including an evaluation of some of the operational characteristics of the Reflotron users. The primary care users in Norway taking part in the study comprised 95 occupational health care departments and 89 genera...
متن کاملAccuracy and precision of analyses for total cholesterol as measured with the Reflotron cholesterol method.
We compared plasma cholesterol measurements made with the Boehringer Mannheim Reflotron reflectance photometric analyzer in 1298 capillary blood samples with measurements made in venous blood samples collected at the same time and analyzed in four standardized Lipid Research Clinics laboratories. The Reflotron measurements averaged 0.8% to 7.8% lower than the laboratory values. Correlations (r)...
متن کاملEvaluation of Aution Max AX-4280 automated urine test-strip analyser.
Aution Max AX-4280, an automated urine test-strip analyser, was evaluated in three centres. Method comparison, imprecision, carry-over, linearity, detection limit and drift studies were performed for glucose, protein, blood and leukocytes using Uriflet S 9UB strips. These strips enable measurement of pH, glucose, protein, blood, leukocytes, ketones, bilirubin, urobilinogen and nitrite. Specific...
متن کاملMulticenter evaluation of Reflotron direct dry-chemistry assay of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in venous and fingerstick specimens.
The Reflotron HDL Cholesterol test (Boehringer Mannheim GmbH) directly separates and analyzes high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in plasma collected with EDTA in an integrated dry-reagent system suitable for alternative site testing of lipoproteins. We describe a multicenter evaluation of this test by two US and six European laboratories experienced in lipid analysis. Each laboratory co...
