Indications for Use
For in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative measurement of albumin in human serum or plasma on ADVIA Chemistry systems. Albumin measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases primarily involving the liver or kidneys. For in vitro diagnostic use in the calibration of the ADVIA Chemistry Albumin BCP Assay (ALBP) on ADVIA Chemistry systems.
Device Story
ADVIA Chemistry Albumin BCP Assay is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for quantitative albumin measurement in human serum or plasma. It utilizes the bromocresol purple (BCP) dye-binding method; serum/plasma albumin binds to BCP to form a complex measured as an endpoint reaction at 596/694 nm. The device is used on automated ADVIA 1650 Chemistry systems in clinical laboratory settings. It includes a lyophilized, human serum-based multi-analyte calibrator. Healthcare providers use the resulting albumin concentration values to assist in the diagnosis and management of liver and kidney diseases. The assay provides a standardized measurement traceable to ERM-DA470k reference material, supporting clinical decision-making regarding patient protein status.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision evaluated per CLSI EP5-A2 (N=80 per sample, total CV 0.0-1.5%). Linearity assessed across 0.6-8.0 g/dL range (R=1.000). LoB/LoD/LoQ determined per CLSI EP17-A2 (LoQ 0.6 g/dL). Method comparison with predicate (N=69) showed high correlation (r=0.999, slope 0.99). Matrix comparison (plasma vs. serum) showed r=0.993-0.998. Interference testing confirmed no significant bias (>10%) for bilirubin, lipemia, or hemoglobin at tested concentrations.
Technological Characteristics
Liquid, ready-to-use BCP dye-binding reagent. Calibrator is lyophilized human serum-based. Measurement via endpoint spectrophotometry at 596/694 nm. Traceable to ERM-DA470k. Designed for use on automated ADVIA 1650 Chemistry systems. Analytical range 0.6-8.0 g/dL.
Indications for Use
Indicated for quantitative measurement of albumin in human serum or plasma to aid in diagnosis and treatment of liver or kidney diseases. Used for calibration of the ADVIA Chemistry Albumin BCP Assay.
