About FERRITIN Turbilatex -40ml
This product is used to determine the level of ferritin in serum and plasma. Ferritin is a spherical, hollow iron storage protein that stores about 450,000 iron atoms.
Ferritin is mainly distributed in liver and spleen, and participates in detoxification and storage. The content of ferritin in serum is very small, but the dynamic change of its value reflects the storage of iron in the body. The determination of serum FER concentration is very useful for the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of iron metabolism abnormalities such as anemia and iron excess, liver diseases, etc.
Reliable and Accurate Ferritin MeasurementWith FERRITIN Turbilatex -40ml, laboratories can achieve consistent and precise ferritin quantification in serum or plasma samples. This reagent is suitable for a range of automated analyzer platforms, streamlining operations and minimizing human error. Laboratories benefit from its broad measuring range and high sensitivity, essential for accurate diagnostics.
Convenient and Long-lasting ReagentThe 40 ml pack size combined with a shelf life of 12 months and post-opening stability of 30 days at recommended storage temperatures ensures practicality and cost-effectiveness. Multipoint calibration enhances result accuracy, making it an ideal choice for labs with varying throughput demands.
