The ALPI method is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative measurement of alkaline phosphatase in human serum and plasma on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system. Measurements of alkaline phosphatase or its isoenzymes are used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal diseases. ALPI CAL is an in vitro diagnostic product for the calibration of alkaline phosphatase (ALPI) method on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system.
Device Story
The Dimension ALPI system is an in vitro diagnostic assay for measuring alkaline phosphatase activity in human serum and plasma. The device uses a reagent cartridge containing p-nitrophenyl phosphate (p-NPP) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) buffer. Alkaline phosphatase catalyzes the transphosphorylation of p-NPP to p-nitrophenol (p-NP) in the presence of magnesium and zinc ions. The system measures the rate of change in absorbance at 405 nm (bichromatic 405/510 nm) to determine enzyme activity. The ALPI CAL is a three-level liquid calibrator used to calibrate the assay. The device is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results are used by clinicians to diagnose and monitor liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal conditions. The system provides automated quantitative results, facilitating clinical decision-making regarding patient disease status.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via method comparison (n=116, r=0.999), linearity (10-1000 U/L), and precision (within-lab %CV 1.6-4.2%). Interference testing performed per CLSI EP7-A2; no significant interference observed for common substances up to tested concentrations. Reference interval established from 132 healthy adults.
Indicated for quantitative measurement of alkaline phosphatase in human serum and plasma to aid in diagnosis and treatment of liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal diseases. For use on Dimension clinical chemistry systems.

#### G. Device Description:
The ALPI method employs alkaline phosphatase that catalyzes the transphosphorylation of pnitropheny | phosphate (p-NPP) to p-nitrophenol (p-NP) in the presence of the transphosphorylating buffer, 2 amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP). The reaction is enhanced through the use of magnesium and zinc ions. The change in absorbance at 405 nm due to the formation of p-NP is directly proportional to the ALP activity, since other reactants are present in non-rate limiting quantities and is measured using a bichromatic (405, 510 nm) rate technique.
> ALP p-NP + AMP + PO4 p-NPP + AMP pH 10.25 Mg/Zn
The ALPI CAL is a three (3) level, liquid calibrator. It is packaged as a kit of six vials, two vials per level (1, 2 and 3) with 1.0 mL per vial. The product matrix is a human serum albumin based product containing alkaline phosphatase from porcine kidney. Levels 2 and 3 contain alkaline phosphatase at the following concentrations.
