Accudx Cq T4 Rapid Test Kit Pack Of 25 Tests Na

AccuDx CQ T4 (Thyroxine) Fast Teat Kit (Immunofluoreacence Aasay) is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of T4 in serum and plasma. It can be used in the monitoring of hyperthyroid- ism and hypothyroidism, and also used as an aid in the functional diagnosis of thyroidea.

Summary:
The thyroid gland exerts powerful and essential regulatory influences on growth, differentiation, cellar metabolism and general hormonal balance, as well as on the maintenance of metabolic activity and the development of the sketeal and organ system.
T4 is the most commonly measured substance in the assesse- ment of thyroid function. Most of the thyroxine secreted into the bloodstream is bound to a transport protein, thyroxine binding globulin (TBG), and to albumin and pre-albumin. Only less than 1% of thyroxine remains unbound as free T4 in blood. Elevated total thyroxine levels have been associated with hyperthyroidism, a condition with an excess amount of circulating thyroid hormone and decreased total thyroxine levels have been associated with hypothyroidism,a condition with insufficient levels of thyroxine concentration. Primary malfunction of the thyroid gland or any diseases affecting the thyroid-pituitary-hypothalamus system may result in the abnormal thyroxine concentration in blood. Measurement of thyroxine has been one of the most widely used method for evaluation of an individual's thyroid status.

Principle:
The test uses anti-human T4 monoclonal antibody conjugated with fluorescence latex coated on the junction of nitrocellulose
membrane and sample sad, and T4 antigen coated on the test line. After the sample has been applied to the test strip, the fluorescence latex-labelled anti-human T4 monoconal antibody binds with the T4 in sample and forms marked antigen-antibody
complex. The complex moves to the detection zone by capillary action and then it is captured on the test line by T4
antigen. The fluorescence intensity of the test line increases in proportion to the amount of T4 in sample. Then Insert test card into AccuDxCQ Immunofluorescence Quantitative Analyzer/Automatically inserted by AccuDxCQ Immunofluorescence Quantitative Analvzer (hereafter referred to as AccuDx CQ), the concentrations of T4 in sample will be measured and displayed on the screen. The value will be stored in AccuDx CQ and available for downloading. The result can be easily transmitted to the laboratory or hospital information system.
