FAQ's of Erba Mannheim LIQUIXX Triglycerides Kit:
Q: How do I use the Erba Mannheim LIQUIXX Triglycerides Kit for testing serum or plasma samples?
A: Simply pipette 10 L of serum or plasma (collected with EDTA, heparin, or citrate) into the reaction medium with the ready-to-use R1 and R2 reagents. Incubate for 5 minutes at 37C, then measure absorbance at 500 nm (range 490-510 nm) as detailed in the kit insert.
Q: What range of triglyceride concentrations can the kit accurately measure?
A: The kit provides quantitative triglyceride determination up to 1000 mg/dL, with linearity maintained within this range based on the analyzer used.
Q: When should I calibrate the system with the provided calibrator?
A: Calibration is recommended at installation, after reagent lot changes, or as advised in the analyzer's protocol, ensuring accuracy. The kit's calibrator is traceable to international reference material for reliable results.
Q: Where should the Triglycerides Kit reagents be stored?
A: Store all reagents between 2C and 8C and do not freeze, as this preserves reagent integrity and extends shelf life up to 24 months.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this kit in a clinical laboratory?
A: Its liquid-stable, ready-to-use reagents, rapid turnaround, high accuracy, and compatibility with a wide range of analyzers make it ideal for efficient and dependable triglyceride analysis.
Q: Is the kit compatible with both manual and automatic analyzers?
A: Yes, the kit is designed to operate seamlessly on most open-system clinical chemistry analyzers, whether manual or automated.
Q: What safety precautions should be observed when handling the reagents?
A: Refer to the included Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full hazard information and best laboratory safety practices.
