Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay

Manufactured by Siemens
Sourced in Germany

The Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a laboratory technique used to detect and quantify specific substances, typically proteins, in a liquid sample. The core function of ELISA is to use antibodies and color change to identify and measure the concentration of a target substance.

Abdominal Swabs and Blood Coagulation

A total of another 10 abdominal swabs were analyzed in the SCT as described above.
Furthermore, activation of blood coagulation was measured before and after contact of two abdominal swabs with fresh human whole blood, which was anticoagulated with various heparin concentrations ranging from 0.75 to 1.5 IU/ml. As a plasmatic marker for coagulation, we determined thrombin–antithrombin-III complexes (TAT) with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Siemens Healthcare, Marburg, Germany).

Biochemical Markers in Clinical Evaluation

Serum biochemical variables were measured with an Architect c16000/i2000 analyzer (Abbott Diagnostics, City, UK). Serum copper was analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAnalyst 800, Perkin Elmer, City, CA, USA). Serum zinc was analyzed by a colorimetric method (Sentinel Diagnostics, Milano, Italy). The normal ranges were 60 to 150 µg/dL for zinc and 75 to 150 µg/dL for copper. Immunoanalysis was used to measure C-reactive protein, procalcitonin (Abbott Diagnostics, City, ST, US) and D dimer (Siemens, City, Germany), and interleukin-6 and interleukin-12 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Invitrogen, City, CA, USA). The intra- and interassay coefficients of variation were below 10%.

Assessing Mental Health and Comorbidity

Anxiety and depression were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). This is a brief and easy to administer questionnaire that was developed to detect possible and probable cases of anxiety disorders and depression in clinical settings. A score in either domain ≥8 indicates possible anxiety or depression [29] . Comorbidityrelated prognosis was calculated using the age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) [30] , from the medical history. Systemic inflammation was measured using peripheral blood high-sensitivity Creactive protein (hs-CRP), and analysed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Marburg, Germany).

Edoxaban's Impact on D-dimer and F1+2 in AHF

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The primary measure for this sub-analysis was the change in Ddimer levels after admission for AHF. We also compared D-dimer and F1 + 2 levels between patients who were already receiving edoxaban prior to admission and those who first received edoxaban at the time of admission. The plasma concentration of edoxaban in both groups was also investigated. Blood sampling began before administration of edoxaban on Day 1 and continued immediately prior to each edoxaban dose for 7 consecutive days after admission. The final blood sample was collected on the day of discharge or when it was determined by the investigator that the patient had entered the clinically stable phase of heart failure and observation could be stopped.
The methods for measuring D-dimer, F1 + 2, and edoxaban levels have been published [17] ; respectively, these were a latex immunoturbidimetric assay (reference value < 1.0 μg/mL; KAINOS Laboratories, Inc., Tokyo, Japan), an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (reference value 69-229 pmol/L; Siemens Healthineers AG, Erlangen, Germany), and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry solid phase extraction (SCIEX, Framingham, MA, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
