ABSTRACT
Objective To verify the analytical performance of the portable Celercare M1 analyzer in the C-reactive protein(CRP) quantitative determination.Methods According to the standard program of the American Clinical and Laboratory Standards Insti-tute (CLSI),The portable Celercare M1 analyzer was performed the verification on the CRP detection in the aspects of the linearity range,precision,accuracy,interference test and method comparison.Results The CRP detection showed good linearity in the range of 0.5-200 mg/L and the regression equation was Y =0.979X +0.456.The within-run coefficients of variation(CV)of samples with low and high CRP levels were 5.9% and 2.0%,respectively.The between-day CV of samples with low and high CRP levels were 6.3% and 2.2%,respectively.The accuracy of the assay was admirable,and bias of CRP results at low and high levels were 2.3% and 0.7%,respectively.No significance interference was observed when serum bilirubin ≤340 μmol/L,triglyceride ≤10 mmol/L and hemoglobin ≤8 g/L in this method.The regression equation of Celercare M1 analyzer(Y )and the IMMAGE 800 (X) for detecting CRP was Y =0.944X +0.206,R 2 =0.996(P <0.05).The relative bias of CRP results in three medical decision levels (3,10,100 mg/L)was 1 .0%,4.0% and 5.0%,repectively,which was lower than 1/2 of total error allowance.Conclusion The linearity,precision,accuracy and interference of the Celercare M1 analyzer in CRP determination are admirable and can be accepted in clinical practice.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the clinical significance of serum neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin(NGAL)detection in the diagnosis of contrast induced nephropathy .Methods A total of 299 inpatients with contrast medium in department of inten‐sive care unit(ICU) ,department of cardiovascular disease ,department of urology from Guangdong Province Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled ,and the fasting blood glucose and lipids were detected .Sera were collected before examination of contrast medium and 1 ,2 and 6 d after examination of contrast medium respectively .Serum creatinine(SCr)and cystatin C(CysC) were detected ,the concentration of NGAL was determined .CIN was defined as of increased by 44 μmol/L or 25% from baseline in SCr within 24-48 h .The NGAL detection variation tendency was analyzed in different time point .Results In 299 cases ,CIN oc‐curred in 28 patients ,the incidence rate was 9 .36% .The diabetes patients in the incidence of CIN was 16 .21% (12/74) ,no inci‐dence of diabetic patients was 7 .11% (16/225) .When compared with that of before contrast ,CIN in serum of patients with Cr and CysC coronary angiography in 2 d significantly increased after contrast medium ,returned to the level before angiography on 6 d .But the serum NGAL in angiography 1 d after it was significantly increased (P<0 .05) ,statistically significant differences compared with pre contrast ,and was still at a high level on sixth day .Conclusion Prediction of CIN level of serum NGAL in contrast after 1 d could be a good predictor for CIN ,and the prediction time is earlier than the serum levels of Cr and CysC .The level of serum NGAL can be used for early diagnosis of CIN .
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the comparability of the results of common biochemical items detected by Celercare M1 an‐alyzer in the peripheral blood and the venous whole blood .Methods The samples of peripheral blood and venous whole blood were collected from subjects .The biochemical items including Mg2+ ,Cl- ,tCO2 ,K+ ,Na+ ,Ca2+ ,α‐HBDH ,LDH ,AST ,CK ,CK‐MB ,TP , ALB ,TBIL ,ALT ,GGT ,ALP ,UREA ,GLU ,UA ,CHOL ,and HDL‐C were determined by Celercare M1 analyzer ,and the results were compared .Results The tCO2 results of venous blood was significantly higher than that of peripheral blood (P<0 .05) .How‐ever ,the results of α‐HBDH ,LDH ,CK and CK‐MB of venous blood samples were significantly lower than those of peripheral blood samples ,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The peripheral blood can replace venous blood for biochemical analysis on Celercare M1 analyzer ,except for the electrolyte test items and cardiac enzyme items such as α‐HBDH , LDH ,CK and CK‐MB .
