Accutest Vitamin D (25 Tests)

AccuTest Vitamin D is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the semi quantitative detection of Vitamin D levels in human blood/serum. This assay provides only a preliminary screening test result. A more specific alternative chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical result. The performance characteristics of this assay have not been established in a pediatric population.

Principle:
AccuTest Vitamin D is based on the principle of a competitive enzyme immunoassay. The assay is based on the competition for 25-OH Vitamin D present in blood/serum sample and Vitamin D present on the test line for fixed number of antibody-gold conjugate.
Depending upon the concentration of Vitamin D in blood/serum, there will be free antibody-gold conjugate molecules that will bind to Vitamin D on the test strip and will show a colored line in the test line zone. A control line is present in the test window to work as procedural control.
