The LEUKO EZ VUE™ test is an immunochromatographic test for the qualitative detection of elevated levels of fecal lactoferrin, a marker for fecal leukocytes and an indicator of intestinal inflammation. The LEUKO EZ VUE™ test detects lactoferrin in liquid, semi-solid, and solid fecal specimens. A positive test result indicates an increased level of fecal lactoferrin and warrants additional testing. FOR IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE.

The LEUKO EZ VUE™ test is a 10 minute immunochromatographic device for the detection of elevated levels of lactoferrin, a marker for fecal leukocytes and an indicator of intestinal inflammation. The test utilizes the same polyclonal antibodies against human lactoferrin as our previously cleared LEUKO-TEST assay. The polyclonal antibodies to human lactoferrin are immobilized on nitrocellulose and the conjugate consists of the same antibodies linked to colloidal gold particles. The membrane cassette contains two stripes of immobilized antibodies. One stripe contains anti-lactoferrin antibodies. The other, representing a control stripe, contains anti-IgG antibodies. The diluted sample and gold conjugate migrate by capillary action when the sample is added to the well. If elevated lactoferrin is present in the sample, gold conjugate-lactoferrin complexes form and are captured by the immobilized anti-lactoferrin antibodies in the stripe. The lactoferrin-conjugate-antibody complexes appear as a single red line in the test portion of the Results window. In the control stripe, conjugate binds to the immobilized anti-IgG antibodies, demonstrating correct migration of the sample and conjugate along the membrane. The conjugate-anti-IgG antibodies appear as a single red line in the control portion of the Results window.

Disposable cement spacer molds with stainless steel reinforcements are intended to be used to mold a hemi-hip femoral prosthesis, indicated for temporary use (maximum 180 days) in skeletally mature patients undergoing a two-stage procedure due to septic process. The temporary prosthesis is inserted into the femoral medullary canal and acetabular cavity following removal of the existing femoral and acetabular implants and debridement. The temporary prosthesis is intended for use in conjunction with systemic antimicrobial antibiotic therapy (standard treatment approach to an infection). The hemi-hip femoral prosthesis is not intended for use more than 180 days, at which time it must be explanted and a permanent device implanted or another appropriate treatment performed (e.g. resection, arthroplasty, fusion, etc.) Because of inherent mechanical limitations of the material (polymethylmethacrylate/gentamicin), the molded temporary prosthesis is only indicated for patients who will consistently use traditional mobility assist devices (e.g. crutches, walkers) throughout the implant period.

The device consists of a sterile, assembled cement spacer mold made of medical grade silicone with a stainless steel reinforcement stem located inside the silicone mold, designed to construct a temporary cement hemihip femoral spacer. The silicone component of the spacer mold is designed to shape the temporary spacer but is not implanted, and is to be discarded after a single use. The stainless steel reinforcement stem serves as the load-bearing endoskeleton of the hemi-hip prosthetic implant and is incorporated into the prosthesis by being coated over by bone cement. Polymethylmethacrylate/gentamicin bone cement is filled into the silicone mold containing the stainless steel reinforcement stem. The temporary hip prosthesis is removed from the silicone mold after the cement hardens and is placed into the patient's hip joint space. The femoral cement spacer molds are offered in four sizes (9 mm x 125 mm/ 43mm head, 9 mm x 125 mm/ 51mm head, 13 mm x 145 mm/ 57 mm head & 17 mm x 165 mm/ 64 mm head).

The IBD-SCAN™ test is a quantitative ELISA for measuring concentrations of fecal lactoferrin, a marker of fecal leukocytes. An elevated level is an indicator of intestinal inflammation. The test can be used as an in vitro diagnostic aid to distinguish messinal inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) from those with noninflammatory irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). FOR IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE.

The IBD-QUIK CHEK™ test is an immunochromatographic test for the qualitative detection of elevated levels of lactoferrin, a marker for fecal leukocytes and an indicator of intestinal inflammation. The test can be used as an in vitro diagnostic aid to help identify patients with active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and rule out those with active noninflammatory irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). FOR IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE.

The IBD-OUIK CHEKM test is a 10-minute immunochromatographic device for the detection of elevated levels of lactoferrin, a marker for fecal leukocytes and an indicator of intestinal inflammation. The test utilizes the same polyclonal antibodies against human lactoferrin as our previously cleared I.F.UKO-12ST® and IBD-CHEK™ test. The polyclonal antibodies to human lactoferrin are immobilized on nitrocellulose and the conjugate consists of the same antibodies linked to colloidal gold particles.
