Frequently asked questions
Does this assay provide highly precise diagnostic results?
Yes, the Alinity i T-Uptake reagent utilizes advanced Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA) technology. This methodology is specifically engineered to deliver the high precision and accurate quantitative results required for routine clinical thyroid screening.
Is this reagent fully optimized for the Alinity i system?
Absolutely. This reagent is designed for seamless integration with the Alinity i analyzer platform, ensuring reliable performance and consistent diagnostic quality when used within that specific system.
Can this be used to calculate the Free Thyroxine Index?
Yes, the T-Uptake assay is intended to be used in conjunction with Total T4 testing. By pairing these two assays, clinical laboratories can accurately calculate the Free Thyroxine Index (FTI), which is a vital metric for assessing patient thyroid function.
Is this suitable for high-throughput clinical laboratory environments?
Yes, the cartridge format is designed for batch efficiency, providing 200 tests per unit. This makes it an effective solution for laboratory environments that manage high volumes of endocrinology testing.
What sample types are compatible with this assay?
The Alinity i T-Uptake reagent is validated for use with human Serum or Plasma samples, ensuring flexibility for standard clinical blood collection protocols.
What are the specific reagent volumes included in the kit?
Each 200-test cartridge contains precisely formulated volumes to maintain assay integrity:
- R1: 6.6 mL
- R2: 4.2 mL
- Diluent: 5.9 mL
Are there specific storage requirements to maintain reagent stability?
Yes, to ensure the chemical stability and diagnostic performance of the assay, this product requires refrigeration at all times when not in active use on the analyzer.
Is this a factory-new product from Abbott?
Yes, all reagents supplied are factory-new and manufactured directly by Abbott, meeting the original equipment manufacturer’s quality standards for clinical diagnostics.
What is the primary function of the T-Uptake assay?
The primary function is the quantitative determination of thyroid hormone binding capacity. It measures the capacity of human serum or plasma to bind Thyroxine (T4), serving as a foundational test for comprehensive thyroid health assessments.
Is technical support available if needed?
Yes, for any technical support, operational questions, or clinical inquiries regarding the Alinity i T-Uptake reagent, you can contact the manufacturer’s support line at (800) 727-7846.
