The kit has been designed for the quantitative determination of procalcitonin (PCT) in human serum, plasma and whole blood.
The method can be used for samples over the range of 0-100 ng/ml. The test has to be performed on the MAGLUMI chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) fully auto analyzer (Including MAGLUMI 1000, MAGLUMI 2000, MAGLUMI 2000 Plus and new developed models).
Automated, High-Sensitivity PCT DetectionSnibe MAGLUMI PCT (CLIA) brings laboratory automation and precision to procalcitonin testing. Compatible with MAGLUMI analyzers, this kit delivers reliable results in approximately 18 minutes per assay, supporting rapid clinical decision-making. Its chemiluminescence immunoassay technology ensures accuracy across a broad measurement range, ideal for diagnosing bacterial infections and sepsis efficiently.
User-Friendly and Safe Laboratory OperationThis reagent kit is engineered for simplicity and safety in clinical laboratories. It comprises non-hazardous liquid diagnostic reagents, packed for convenient, single-use application. Routine calibration is minimized to once per lot, and the reagents retain stability when refrigerated. This design maximizes laboratory throughput while prioritizing operator safety.
FAQ's of Snibe MAGLUMI PCT (CLIA):
Q: How does the Snibe MAGLUMI PCT (CLIA) kit assist in diagnosing bacterial infections and sepsis?
A: The kit quantitatively measures procalcitonin (PCT) levels in serum or plasma, which aids clinicians in identifying bacterial infections and assessing the risk of sepsis. Elevated PCT values are indicative of a bacterial origin, thus supporting targeted clinical intervention.
Q: What types of samples are compatible with this reagent kit?
A: The kit is validated for use with human serum and plasma samples collected with K2EDTA or Lithium Heparin anticoagulants, ensuring versatility in sample handling.
Q: When should calibration be performed for this assay?
A: Calibration is required only once per reagent lot, simplifying maintenance and ensuring consistent assay performance throughout the use of each kit lot.
Q: Where can the Snibe MAGLUMI PCT (CLIA) kit be used?
A: This reagent kit is intended for use in laboratories equipped with MAGLUMI 800, 600, 1000, 2000, or 4000 immunoassay analyzers. It is not designed for point-of-care or portable setups.
Q: What is the typical turnaround time for results using this kit?
A: Each PCT test is completed in approximately 18 minutes, allowing healthcare providers to make timely decisions based on quantitative data.
Q: How should the kit be stored to ensure maximum shelf life and reagent stability?
A: The unopened reagent kit should be kept refrigerated at 2-8C. Under these conditions, the kit maintains its quality for 12 to 18 months from the date of manufacture.
