The i-STAT hs-Tnl cartridge with the i-STAT 1 System is intended to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI).

The i-STAT hs-TnI cartridge is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative measurement of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in whole blood or plasma samples using the i-STAT 1 analyzer in point of care or clinical laboratory settings. The i-STAT hs-TnI test uses an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method with electrochemical detection of the resulting enzyme signal. The test reports a quantitative measurement of the sample concentration of cTnI in units of ng/L in approximately 15 minutes. The i-STAT hs-TnI immunoassay test method uses anti-cTnI antibodies for labeling and capture. The capture antibodies are coated on para-magnetic microparticles. Both label and capture antibodies are contained within the cartridge on a biosensor chip. The ELISA is initiated when the test cartridge is inserted into the analyzer. The sample is positioned over the biosensor chip to dissolve the reagents. This forms the ELISA sandwich (detection antibodylabel/antigen/capture antibody). The sample and excess antibody-conjugate are then washed off the sensors. An enzyme within the ELISA sandwich generates an electrochemically detectable product. The biosensor chip measures the enzyme product which is proportional to the concentration of cTnI within the sample. The i-STAT hs-TnI cartridge is a single use test cartridge. The cartridge contains a biosensor chip and all reagents required to execute the test cycle. All fluid movements within the cartridge (test sample or reagent) are automatically controlled by the i-STAT 1 analyzer by electromechanical interaction with the cartridge. The analyzer executes the test cycle, acquires and processes the electrical sensor signals converting the signals into quantitative results. These functions are controlled by a microprocessor. The i-STAT 1 System is comprised of the i-STAT 1 analyzer and accessories (i-STAT 1 Downloader/Recharger, i-STAT Electronic Simulator, i-STAT Printer and i-STAT 1 9V NiMH Rechargeable Battery).

The Evidence MultiSTAT analyzer is a benchtop fully automated Biochip Array System. It performs simultaneous detection of multiple analytes from a single sample. The core technology is the Randox Biochip, a solid-state device containing an array of discrete test regions containing immobilised antibodies specific to different Drugs of Abuse (DOA) compound classes, A competitive chemiluminescent immunoassay is used for the DOA assays with the drug in the specimen and drug labelled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) being in direct competition for the antibody binding sites. Increased levels of drug in a specimen will lead to reduced binding of drug labelled with HRP and thus a reduction in chemiluminescence being emitted. The light signal generated from each of the test regions on the biochip is detected by a Charge Coupled Device (CCD) camera in the Evidence MultiSTAT system which, together with the analyzer software, is used to quantify the light output and produce meaningful results. The immunoassay processes are performed automatically in a self-contained and sealed biochip cartridge, which holds the biochips, the reagents, wash buffer and other fluids required for the test to be conducted.

The TC+HDL cassette is for the quantitative determination of total cholesterol and HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol in whole blood. The TC cassette is for the quantitative determination of total cholesterol in whole blood. · Cholesterol measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving excess cholesterol in the blood and lipid and lipoprotein metabolism disorders. · HDL (lipoprotein) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and various liver and renal diseases. · Triglyceride measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment with diabetes mellitus, nephrosis, liver obstruction, other diseases involving lipid metabolism, or various endocrine disorders. · Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.

The Cholestech LDX ™ system combines enzymatic methodology and solid-phase technology to measure total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose. Samples used for testing can be whole blood from a fingerstick (collected in a lithium heparin-coated capillary tube) or venipuncture. The sample is applied to the Cholestech LDX™ cassette®. The cassette is then placed into the Cholestech LDX™ Analyzer where a unique system on the cassette separates the plasma from the blood cells. A portion of the plasma flows to the right side of the cassette and is transferred to both the total cholesterol and triglyceride reaction pads. Simultaneously, plasma flows to the left side of the cassette where the low- and very low-density lipoproteins (LDL and VLDL) are precipitated with dextran sulfate (50,000 MW) and magnesium acetate precipitating reagent.The filtrate, containing both glucose and HDL cholesterol, is transferred to both the glucose and HDL cholesterol reaction pads. The Cholestech LDX ™ Analyzer measures total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol by an enzymatic method based on the method formulation of Allain et al, and Roeschlau. Cholesterol esterase hydrolyzes the cholesterol esters in the filtrate or plasma to free cholesterol and the corresponding fatty acid. Cholesterol oxidase, in the presence of oxygen, oxidizes free cholesterol to cholest-4-ene-3-one and hydrogen peroxide. In a reaction catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase, the peroxide reacts with 4-Aminoantipyrine and N-ethyl-N-sulfohydroxypropyl-m-toluidine, sodium sale (TOOS) to form a purple-colored quinoneimine dye proportional to the total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol concentrations of the sample. The analyzer measures triglycerides by an enzymatic method based on the hydrolysis of triglycerides by lipase to glycerol and free fatty acids. Glycerol, in a reaction catalyzed by glycerol kinase, is converted to glycerol-3-phosphate. In a third reaction, glycerol-3phosphate is oxidized by glycerol phosphate oxidase to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and hydrogen peroxide. The color reaction utilizing horseradish peroxidase is the same as for the total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol. Estimated LDL cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol and a TC/HDL ratio are calculated using the measured values for TC, HDL, and Triglycerides. The analyzer measures glucose by an enzymatic method that uses glucose oxidase to catalyze the oxidation of glucose to gluconolactone and hydrogen peroxide. The color reaction utilizing horseradish peroxidase is the same as that for total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides. The resultant color in all the reactions is measured by reflectance photometry. A brown (magnetic) stripe on each cassette contains the calibration information required for the Cholestech LDX ™ Analyzer to convert the reflectance reading (% R) to the total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose concentrations.

The device is an automated photometric clinical analyzer that measures analytes in samples, in combination with appropriate reagents, calibrators, quality control (QC) material and other accessories. This system is for in vitro diagnostic use only. Electrolyte measurement is performed using a single cell lon Selective Electrode (ISE) which is also common among the other members of the AU family. The ISE module for Na+, K+, and Cl- employs crown ether membrane electrodes for sodium and potassium and a molecular oriented PVC membrane for chloride that are specific for each ion of interest in the sample.

When compared to the Internal Reference Solution, this electrical potential is translated into voltage and then into the ion concentration of the sample. In this Beckman Coulter procedure, glucose is phosphorylated by hexokinase (HK) in the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and magnesium ions to produce glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Glucose-6phosphate dehydrogenase (G6P-DH) specifically oxidizes G-6-P to 6phosphogluconate with the concurrent reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced (NADH). The change in absorbance at 340/660 nm is proportional to the amount of glucose present in the sample.
