ONLINE TDM Methotrexate is an in vitro test for the quantitative determination of methotrexate in human serum and plasma on cobas c systems. The determination of methotrexate is used for monitoring levels of methotrexate to ensure appropriate therapy.

The ONLINE TDM Methotrexate assay is an in vitro test for the quantitative determination of methotrexate in human serum and plasma on cobas c systems. The determination of methotrexate is used for monitoring levels of methotrexate to ensure appropriate therapy. The ONLINE TDM MTX assay is a two-reagent system used for the detection of methotrexate in serum and plasma. In this technology drug hapten attached to the enzyme glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) serves as the binding partner to anti-methotrexate antibody. A competitive reaction to a limited amount of specific anti-methotrexate antibody takes place between the enzyme bound hapten and free methotrexate in the sample. Enzyme activity is reduced with bound antibody. Only active enzymes reduce NAD+ to NADH. The rate of NADH formation during the reaction correlates to the methotrexate concentration and is measured photometrically. The ONLINE TDM MTX assay is a homogeneous enzyme-immunoassay. Reagents - working solutions R1: Anti-methotrexate antibody (rabbit monoclonal), 3 µg/mL; NAD, G6P, bovine serum albumin in water, pH 6.3; preservative R3: Methotrexate hapten conjugated to G6PDH, 0.3 µg/mL; bovine serum albumin in buffer, pH 7.8; preservative

The ARK Methotrexate II Assay is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay intended for the quantitative determination of methotrexate in human serum or plasma on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. The measurements obtained are used in monitoring levels of methotrexate to help ensure appropriate therapy. Specimens from patients who have received glucarpidase (carboxypeptidase G2) as a high dose methotrexate rescue therapy should not be tested with the ARK Methotrexate II Assay.

The ARK Methotrexate II Assay is a homogeneous immunoassay based on competition between drug in the specimen and methotrexate labeled with the recombinant enzyme glucose-6phosphate dehydrogenase (rG6PDH) for binding to the antibody reagent. As the latter binds antibody, enzyme activity decreases. In the presence of drug from the specimen, enzyme activity increases and is directly related to the drug concentration. Active enzyme converts the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to NADH that is measured spectrophotometrically as a rate of change in absorbance. Endogenous serum G6PDH does not interfere with the results because the coenyzme NAD functions only with the bacterial enzyme (rG6PDH) used in the assay. The ARK Methotrexate II Assay consists of reagents R1 anti-methotrexate monoclonal antibody with substrate and R2 methotrexate labeled with recombinant G6PDH enzyme. The test system includes the ARK Methotrexate II Calibrator, ARK Methotrexate II Control, and ARK Methotrexate II Dilution Buffer.

The ARK™ Methotrexate Assay is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay intended for the quantitative determination of methotrexate in human serum or plasma on automated clinical chemistry analyzers.

The ARK Methotrexate Assay is a homogeneous immunoassay based on competition between drug in the specimen and Methotrexate labeled with the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) for binding to the antibody reagent. As the latter binds antibody, enzyme activity decreases. In the presence of drug from the specimen, enzyme activity increases and is directly proportional to the drug concentration. Active enzyme converts the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to NADH that is measured spectrophotometrically as a rate of change in absorbance. Endogenous serum G6PDH does not interfere with the results because the coenzyme NAD functions only with the bacterial enzyme used in the assay. The ARK Methotrexate Assay consists of reagents R1 anti-Methotrexate polyclonal antibody with substrate and R2 Methotrexate labeled with bacterial G6PDH enzyme. The ARK Methotrexate Calibrator consists of a six-level set to calibrate the assay, and the ARK Methotrexate Control consists of a six-level set used for quality control of the assay (tri-level calibration range set and tri-level high range set). The ARK Methotrexate Dilution Buffer is equivalent to zero calibrator (Calibrator A).

The measurements obtained are used in monitoring levels of methotrexate to help ensure appropriate therapy. The ARK™ Methotrexate Calibrator is intended for use in calibration of the ARK Methotrexate Assay. The ARKTM Methotrexate Control is intended for use in quality control of the ARK Methotrexate Assay.
