CLSI - Protocols for Determination of Limits of Detection and Limits of Quantitation - EP17-A

L. Test Principle:

Glucose

The AMS Diagnostics glucose hexokinase method is based on a modification of Slein, using hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase to catalyze the reaction. Glucose is phosphorylated with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the reaction catalyzed by hexokinase (HK). The product, glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is then oxidized with the concomitant reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to NADH in the reaction catalyzed by glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G6PDH). The formation of NADH causes and increase in absorbance at 340 nm. The increase is directly proportional to the amount of glucose in the sample.

Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)

Urea has been determined by the direct method where urea condenses with diacetyl to form a chromagen and an indirect method where ammonia is measured as a product of Urease action on urea. The liberated ammonia has been measured using Nessler's reagent and by the Berthelot reaction. Talke and Schubert introduced a totally enzymatic procedure in 1965 utilizing Urease and Glutamate Dehydrogenase. The AMS procedure is based on a modification of their method. Urea is hydrolyzed by in the presence of water and urease to produce ammonia and carbon dioxide. The liberated ammonia reacts with a-Ketoglutarate in the presence of NADH to yield glutamate. An equimolar quantity of NADH undergoes oxidation during the reaction resulting in a decrease in absorbance that is directly proportional to the urea nitrogen concentration in the sample.

Creatinine

Jaffe described a method in 1886 for the determination of creatinine involving a protein free filtrate and a reaction with picric acid in alkaline solution. The AMS method is based on a modification of this procedure, incorporating a surfactant and other ingredients to minimize protein and carbohydrate interferences. Creatinine reacts with picric acid in alkaline conditions to form a color complex which absorbs at 510 nm. The rate of formation of color is proportional to the creatinine in the sample.

Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST/SGOT)

In 1955 Karmen developed a kinetic assay procedure for AST which was based upon the use of malate dehydrogenase and NADH. Henry in 1960 and Amador and Wacker in 1962 later presented optimized procedures. These modifications increased accuracy

5 of 13

{5}

and lowered the effect of interfering substances. The IFCC5 published a recommended method that Included P-5-P in 1986. The AMS method is based on IFCC recommendations but does not contain P-5-P. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from Laspartate to 2-oxoglutarate to yield oxalacetate and L-glutamate. The oxaloacetate undergoes reduction with simultaneous oxidation of NADH to NAD in the malate dehydrogenase (MDH) catalyzed indicator reaction. The resulting rate of decrease in absorbance at 340nm is directly proportional to the AST activity. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is added to prevent interference from endogenous pyruvate which is normally present in serum.

## Sodium, Potassium, and Chloride

The AMS measurement is based on ion selective electrode technology. The flow-through sodium electrode uses selective membrane tubing, specially formulated to be sensitive to sodium ions. The potassium and chloride electrodes employ similar designs with appropriate selective membrane materials. The potential of each electrode is measured relative to a fixed, stable voltage established by the double-junction silver/silver chloride reference electrode. An ion selective electrode develops a voltage that varies with the concentration of the ion to which it responds. The relationship between the voltage developed and the concentration of the sensed ion is logarithmic, as expressed by the Nernst equation.
