Assay characteristics
The VIDAS B·R·A·H·M·S PCT assay is a one-step immunoassay sandwich method with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA) can be distinguished by these characteristics:
| Sample matrix | Human serum or plasma (lithium heparinate) |
| Sample volume | 200 μL |
| Incubation time | 20 min |
| Measuring range | 0.05-200 μg/L |
| Limit of Quantification (LoQ) | 0.05 μg/L |
| Limit of Detection (LoD) | 0.03 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. |
