Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) for the determination of Procalcitonin (PCT) in human serum or plasma on the automated Roche Elecsys, Modular and Cobas e (e601, e602 and e411) immunoassay analyzers.
Assay characteristics
ELECSYS B·R·A·H·M·S PCT assay can be distinguished by these characteristica:
| Test principle | ECLIA, sandwich principle |
| Sample matrix | Serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA) |
| Sample volume | 30 μL |
| Test duration | 18 min |
| Measuring range | 0.02-100 μg/L |
| Functional sensitivity (LoQ) | 0.06 μg/L |
| Detection limit (LoD) | ≤ 0.02 μg/L |
|
Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) and Limit of Detection (LoD) values are rounded to 2 decimal places in alignment with the reported results for the assay. |
