Kit for 200 tests (Order no. 62062)
Kit for 1000 tests, including Analytical Column, Trap Column, 3PLUS1® Multilevel Calibrator Set and MassCheck® Controls (Order no. 62062/1000)

 

Clinical relevance

This assay allows the quantitative determination of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-vitamin D3) and 25-hydroxyergocalciferol (25-OH-vitamin D2), as well as 3-epi-25-OH-vitamin D3 in human plasma or serum samples.

It is intended to be used for screening and/or monitoring of 25-OH-vitamin D3/D2 levels where indicated:

  • in patients with suspected vitamin D deficiency,
  • in patients with suspected vitamin D insufficiency, or
  • in patients with suspected vitamin D excess, and/or
  • in patients under vitamin D supplementation therapy.

The test kit is further intended to be used as an aid to diagnosis of diseases for which determination of vitamin D levels is indicated.

This kit should be used when the levels of 3-epi-25-OH-vitamin D3 and 25-OH-vitamin D3 are to be determined separately.

 

Assay characteristics

Manual sample preparation is limited to simple and effective protein precipitation. The analytes are enriched with the aid of a trap column online and thus, interfering matrix components are separated. Chromatographic separation and further purification of all analytes is then performed by a special high‑resolution analytical column connected to the trap column by a valve. The method features the use of APCI (atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation) and the isotopically labelled internal standard adjusted to the epimeric forms. Matrix effects (“ion suppression”) are minimised and the precision and robustness of the method are optimised. The multilevel calibrator includes 25-hydroxyvitamin D3/D2 as well as the epimeric form 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 and ensures high precision of results.

Detailed performance evaluation data for this assay can be found in Appendices II and III of the instruction manual.
