| Engelsk navn: | Total bilirubin |
| Analyseinstrument: | Advia®1800 |
| Reagensprodusent: | Siemens Medical Solutions Diagnostics |
| Analyseprinsipp: | Vanadate oxidation The bilirubin is oxidized by vanadate at about pH 3 to produce biliverdin. In the presence of the detergent and the vanadate, both conjugated (direct) and unconjugated bilirubin are oxidized. This oxidation reaction causes the decrease in the optical density of the yellow color, which is specific to bilirubin. The decrease in optical density at 451 nm is proportional to the total bilirubin concentration in the sample.(Metoden tatt i bruk: 5/1-06) |
