Urinary cystatin C has been reported to be a good marker for tubular damage and acute kidney injury. The aim of this study was to develop a high throughput assay for the quantification of urine cystatin C.
Antigen-excess, imprecision, interference, linearity, recovery, sample stability and reference values were evaluated on Cobas c501.
The assay was linear over the dynamic range of the study (R²=0.9994). The total assay imprecision was below 5%. The assay recovery was estimated at 87-100%. No tendency to antigen-excess (up to 35 mg/L), nor interference with haemoglobin (1.25-10 g/L) was observed. Cystatin C was stable for 1 day at ambient temperature (19-23°C) but for 2 days at +4°C. The reference interval for cystatin C in urine was <0.414 mg/L.
The urinary cystatin C assay verified to be a reliable assay with convenient performance characteristics, enabling routine testing on clinical chemistry platforms.
尿胱抑素 C 已被报道为肾小管损伤和急性肾损伤的良好标志物。本研究旨在开发一种高通量测定尿胱抑素 C 的方法。
在 Cobas c501 上评估抗原过量、不精密度、干扰、线性、回收率、样品稳定性和参考值。
该测定法在研究的动态范围内呈线性(R²=0.9994)。总测定不精密度低于 5%。回收率估计为 87-100%。未观察到抗原过量(高达 35mg/L)或与血红蛋白(1.25-10g/L)的干扰。胱抑素 C 在室温(19-23°C)下稳定 1 天,但在+4°C 下稳定 2 天。尿胱抑素 C 的参考区间<0.414mg/L。
尿胱抑素 C 测定法具有可靠的性能特征,是一种可靠的测定法,可在临床化学平台上进行常规检测。
