hemolysis/triglyceride

The aim of our study was to investigate the influence of haemolysis and lipemia on resistin (RES) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) measurement by BioVendor enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).

Blood was taken from healthy

OBJECTIVE To assess the incidence of fainting and hemolysis in taking blood samples from adolescents in a school setting. METHODS A cross-sectional school-based survey. All blood samples and data were collected during September and October 2005. METHODS A community sample of 869 youngsters attending

The possible interference of haemolysis, lipaemia and bilirubinaemia on commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (test kits Enzymun-Test; Boehringer Mannheim) for cortisol and free thyroxine (FT4) in canine plasma samples was studied. Serum samples from 20 clinically normal dogs

The pronounced fragility that characterizes swine erythrocytes is likely to produce a variable degree of hemolysis during blood sampling, and the free hemoglobin may then unpredictably bias the quantification of several analytes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of acceptability of

To investigate the progressive effects of a high-fat diet on erythrocyte osmotic fragility, growth performance and serum lipid concentrations in Guinea fowl and Muscovy ducks, 36 Guinea fowl and 36 Muscovy ducks were divided into two groups, for each species, and fed either a standard (STD =

OBJECTIVE Direct measurement of chemical constituents in complex biologic matrices without the use of analyte specific reagents could be a step forward toward the simplification of clinical biochemistry. Problems related to reagents such as production errors, improper handling, and lot-to-lot

Beckman aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), cholesterol, triglycerides, urea, and uric acid Liquid Reagents for Synchron CX 4/5 (48, 48, 25, 60, 26, and 30 cents US/test, respectively) are expensive. We have established our own methods for serum AST, ALT, cholesterol,

In 27 (78%) of 36 patients with massive hemolysis (defined as a fall in hematocrit of more than 12% within 12 h due to intravascular red cell destruction), hypertriglyceridemia (plasma triglycerides greater than 175 mg/dl) was present or appeared within two days after the hemolytic crisis. Eighteen

We examined the frequency of occurrence for turbidity, hemolysis, or icterus in 2599 serum samples submitted for chemistry testing in an acute-care general hospital. Each specimen was compared visually with full-color photographs of adulterated serum, and designated as either "0" (containing no

Using fully mechanized analytical equipment, interference by haemolysis in the determination of 26 clinical chemical parameters was determined quantitatively by adding haemolysate to serum. Haemoglobin concentrations up to 6.6 g/l caused essentially no interference in the following determinations:

C-reactive protein (CRP) and haptoglobin (Hp) are well-known acute phase proteins in the dog. Currently, a commercial ELISA and a colorimetric assay are the methods of choice for measuring CRP and Hp, respectively; however, these assays showed interference when using haemolysed, lipaemic or

The study of the influence of hemolysis was determined experimentally for twenty two biochemical parameters on the analyzer Cobas 6000 ce (Roche Diagnostics). The addition method of hemolysate was used to create an increasing concentration of hemoglobin ranging from 0 to 2000 μmol/L. The limit of

Recently, pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical issues have been addressed to implement biofluid FTIR spectroscopy as a novel diagnostic tool in the clinical setting. Although hemolysis, icterus, and hyperlipidemia are known to interfere with colorimetric and turbidimetric biochemical

Histoplasmosis is an endemic mycosis with global distribution, primarily reported in immunocompromised individuals. A 29-year old immunocompetent male presented with fever, hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia. His peripheral blood showed features suggestive of intravascular hemolysis and
