Device Description
LOCI Vitamin D Total assay:
The LOCI Vitamin D Total assay is a homogeneous competitive chemiluminescent immunoassay based on LOCI technology. The assay measures the total 25(OH)vitamin D concentration [comprising both 25(OH)vitamin D2 and 25(OH)vitamin D3] in both serum and plasma. LOCI Vitamin D Total reagents include a releasing reagent, biotinylated monoclonal antibody, and two synthetic bead reagents. Patient sample is incubated with the releasing reagent to release 25(OH)vitamin D molecules from the vitamin D-binding proteins. The reaction mixture is then incubated with biotinylated antibody to form a 25(OH)vitamin D/biotinylated antibody complex.
Chemibeads containing 25(OH)vitamin D3 analog and chemiluminescent dye are added to remove the excess free biotinylated antibody. Streptavidin-coated Sensibeads containing a photosensitive dye are added to bind the biotinylated antibody. Aqqregates of the Chemibead analog/biotinylated antibody/streptavidin Sensibeads are formed as a result. Illumination of the reaction mixture by light at 680 nm generates singlet oxygen from the Sensibeads, which diffuses into the Chemibeads and triagers a chemiluminescent reaction. The resulting chemiluminescent signal is measured at 612 nm and is inversely proportional to the concentration of total 25(OH)vitamin D in the sample.
LOCI VITD CAL:
The LOCI VITD CAL is a five level, liquid, single analyte, frozen product, which is stored at -15 ℃ to -25 ℃. The calibrator matrix consists of processed human serum with preservatives and stabilizers. Level 1 is a zero level, while levels 2 3, 4, and 5 contain approximately 12, 30, 75, and 165 ng/mL respectively. Each lot of calibrators will have lot specific assigned values assigned from master pool levels that are traceable by method correlation to Ghent University's ID-LC/MS/MS 25(OH)vitamin D Reference Method Procedure (RMP). The ID-LC/MS/MS RMP is traceable to the NIST SRM 2972.

Method Comparison versus the ID-LC-MS/MS:
LOCI Vitamin D Total assay on the Dimension EXL™ with LM system was compared to vitamin D values obtained from the University of Ghent using the ID-LC-MS/MS 25(OH) vitamin D Reference Measurement Procedure (RMP), which is traceable to the NIST Standard SRM2972. A split sample method comparison between the LOCI Vitamin D Total assay versus ID-LC-MS/MS was performed with 163 remnant de-identified human serum samples across the assay range (5.0 - 150.0 ng/mL). Analysis of the results using standard Passing Bablok regression yielded the following:

Linearity:
Linearity across the assay range, 5.0 - 150.0 ng/mL [12.5 - 375.0 nmol/L] was confirmed by testing a sample with a high concentration of vitamin D and serially diluting with a sample of low concentration vitamin D. Each dilution was assayed in replicates of n=5. Linear regression of observed (y) vs. expected values(x) vielded a slope of 1.02, an intercept of 1.4 ng/mL and a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.998. Percent bias between observed and predicted values was within the allowable 10% deviation from the linear fit.
Recovery:
Known amounts of 25(OH)vitamin Dz (30 ng/mL [75.0 nmol/L]) and 25(OH)vitamin-D3 (30 ng/mL [75.0 nmol/L]) were added to separate serum samples containing vitamin D at 28.3 ng/dL [70.8 nmol/L] and 54.7 ng/mL [136.8 nmol/L]. The calculated percent recoveries are listed below:
| Vitamin D at 28.3 ng/mL [70.8 nmol/L] | ||
|---|---|---|
| Added | Amount added ng/mL [nmol/L] | % Recovery |
| 25(OH)vitamin D2 | 30.0 [75.0] | 95 |

| 25(OH)vitamin D2 | 30.0 [75.0] | 94 |
| 25(OH)vitamin D3 | 30.0 [75.0] | 90 |
Detection Capability:
The Limit of Detection (LoD) for the VITD assay is 1.3 ng/mL [3.3 nmol/L], determined consistent with CLSI guideline EP17-A2 Evaluation of Detection Capability for Clinical Laboratory Measurement Procedures and with proportions of false positives (q) less than 5% and false negatives (ß) less than 5%; based on 120 determinations, with 60 blank and 60 low level replicates. The Limit of Blank (LoB) is 0.8 ng/mL [2.0 nmol/L].
Limit of Quantitation:
The limit of quantitation (LoQ) was determined consistent with the CLSI Guideline EP17-A2. TheLoQ for the VITD assay is 5.0 ng/mL [12.5 nmol/L] at a total precision of ≤20% CV. LoQ is defined as the lowest concentration of 25(OH)vitamin D that can be detected at total precision CV of ≤20%.
Interference Testing:
Interference testing was performed according to CLSI EP07-A2: Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry to determine the effect of various endogenous and exogenous substances on the LOCI Vitamin D Total assay. For all interferents, the percent bias was determined by testing a control sample without the interferent and comparing it to the value obtained from a test sample to which the potential interferent had been added. Interferents were tested at three levels of vitamin D concentrations: 13.9-16.9 ng/mL, 28.4-32.0 ng/mL and 70.2-77.3 ng/mL. For each spiked sample, the % recovery was determined. Using 10% as the allowable clinically acceptable threshold for interference, the data below summarizes the concentration of interfering substance tested where there is no interference and the concentration of the interfering substance where interference is first observed.
Hemolysis, Icterus, Lipemia (HIL) Interference:
Bias is the difference in the results between the control sample (without the interferent) and the test sample (contains the interferent) expressed in percent. Bias exceeding 10% is considered interference.

4. Device Description:
LOCI Vitamin D Total assay:
The LOCI Vitamin D Total assay is a homogeneous competitive chemiluminescent immunoassay based on LOCI technology. The assay measures the total 25(OH)vitamin D concentration [comprising both 25(OH)vitamin D2 and 25(OH)vitamin D3] in both serum and plasma. LOCI Vitamin D Total reagents include a releasing reagent, biotinylated monoclonal antibody, and two synthetic bead reagents. Patient sample is incubated with the releasing reagent to release 25(OH)vitamin D molecules from the vitamin D-binding proteins. The reaction mixture is then incubated with biotinylated antibody to form a 25(OH)vitamin D/biotinylated antibody complex.
Chemibeads containing 25(OH)vitamin D3 analog and chemiluminescent dye are added to remove the excess free biotinylated antibody. Streptavidin-coated Sensibeads containing a photosensitive dye are added to bind the biotinylated antibody. Aqqregates of the Chemibead analog/biotinylated antibody/streptavidin Sensibeads are formed as a result. Illumination of the reaction mixture by light at 680 nm generates singlet oxygen from the Sensibeads, which diffuses into the Chemibeads and triagers a chemiluminescent reaction. The resulting chemiluminescent signal is measured at 612 nm and is inversely proportional to the concentration of total 25(OH)vitamin D in the sample.
LOCI VITD CAL:
The LOCI VITD CAL is a five level, liquid, single analyte, frozen product, which is stored at -15 ℃ to -25 ℃. The calibrator matrix consists of processed human serum with preservatives and stabilizers. Level 1 is a zero level, while levels 2 3, 4, and 5 contain approximately 12, 30, 75, and 165 ng/mL respectively. Each lot of calibrators will have lot specific assigned values assigned from master pool levels that are traceable by method correlation to Ghent University's ID-LC/MS/MS 25(OH)vitamin D Reference Method Procedure (RMP). The ID-LC/MS/MS RMP is traceable to the NIST SRM 2972.

Repeatability and Within-Lab Results
Linearity
Linearity across the assay range, 5.0 - 150.0 ng/mL [12.5 - 375.0 nmol/L] was confirmed by testing a sample with a high concentration of vitamin D and serially diluting with a sample of low concentration vitamin D. Each dilution was assayed in replicates of n=5. Linear regression of observed (y) vs. expected values(x) vielded a slope of 1.02, an intercept of 1.4 ng/mL and a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.998. Percent bias between observed and predicted values was within the allowable 10% deviation from the linear fit.
Recovery
Known amounts of 25(OH)vitamin Dz (30 ng/mL [75.0 nmol/L]) and 25(OH)vitamin-D3 (30 ng/mL [75.0 nmol/L]) were added to separate serum samples containing vitamin D at 28.3 ng/dL [70.8 nmol/L] and 54.7 ng/mL [136.8 nmol/L].

The calculated percent recoveries are listed below:
Detection Capability
The Limit of Detection (LoD) for the VITD assay is 1.3 ng/mL [3.3 nmol/L], determined consistent with CLSI guideline EP17-A2 Evaluation of Detection Capability for Clinical Laboratory Measurement Procedures and with proportions of false positives (q) less than 5% and false negatives (ß) less than 5%; based on 120 determinations, with 60 blank and 60 low level replicates. The Limit of Blank (LoB) is 0.8 ng/mL [2.0 nmol/L].
Limit of Quantitation
The limit of quantitation (LoQ) was determined consistent with the CLSI Guideline EP17-A2. TheLoQ for the VITD assay is 5.0 ng/mL [12.5 nmol/L] at a total precision of ≤20% CV. LoQ is defined as the lowest concentration of 25(OH)vitamin D that can be detected at total precision CV of ≤20%.
Interference Testing
Interference testing was performed according to CLSI EP07-A2: Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry to determine the effect of various endogenous and exogenous substances on the LOCI Vitamin D Total assay. For all interferents, the percent bias was determined by testing a control sample without the interferent and comparing it to the value obtained from a test sample to which the potential interferent had been added. Interferents were tested at three levels of vitamin D concentrations: 13.9-16.9 ng/mL, 28.4-32.0 ng/mL and 70.2-77.3 ng/mL. For each spiked sample, the % recovery was determined. Using 10% as the allowable clinically acceptable threshold for interference, the data below summarizes the concentration of interfering substance tested where there is no interference and the concentration of the interfering substance where interference is first observed.
Hemolysis, Icterus, Lipemia (HIL) Interference
Bias is the difference in the results between the control sample (without the interferent) and the test sample (contains the interferent) expressed in percent. Bias exceeding 10% is considered interference.
