چکیده

A radioisotopic assay is reported that 4 hr and can be run in unlimited quanaccurately measures an almost identical tity. This raclioassay should simplify diserum folate to that measured by Lactoagnosis of folate deficiency and be parbacillus casei and can separate low, ticularly useful in patients receiving borderline, and normal folate levels. This antibiotics and folate antagonists, where assay utilizes a powdered milk available the microbiological assay gives false low in any grocery. The assay takes less than results.

Evaluation of a commercial radioisotopic kit for folate assays.

A commercial kit for the radioisotopic assay of folate in serum, the Bio-Rad 'Quanta Count' folate kit, produced lower results than the Lactobacillus casei microbiological assay method. Its normal range was 2-0-13-0 microng/l and the reproducibility was similar to that of the microbiological assay method. The kit was also satisfactory for whole bood folate assays. The cost requires careful cons...

Measurement of folate in fresh and archival serum samples as p-aminobenzoylglutamate equivalents.

BACKGROUND The development of accurate and precise folate assays has been difficult, mainly because of folate instability. Large interassay and interlaboratory differences have been reported. We therefore developed a serum folate assay that measures folate and putative degradation products as p-aminobenzoylglutamate (pABG) equivalents following oxidation and acid hydrolysis. METHODS Serum was...

Automation and Analytical Techniques: Measurement of Folate in Fresh and Archival Serum Samples as p-Aminobenzoylglutamate Equivalents

RESULTS: The limit of quantification was 0.25 nmol/L, and the assay was linear in the range 0.25–96 nmol/L, which includes the 99.75 percentile for serum folate concentrations in healthy blood donors. Withinand between-day imprecision was 5%. We detected no residual folate in serum samples after sample preparation. Folate concentrations in fresh serum samples obtained with the pABG assay and wi...

Folate state of premature infants.

The recent widespread application of the microbiological assay of folate in serum, whole blood, and red cells has led to many reports on the folate status of infants (Matoth et al., 1964a, b; Matoth, Pinkas, and Sroka, 1965; Vanier and Tyas, 1966), including some on the folate status of premature infants (Shojania and Gross 1964; Strelling et al., 1966; Vanier and Tyas, 1967). This study was de...
