The tandem mass spectrometry assay takes a quantitative measurement of amino acids, (acyl)carnitines and succinylacetone (SUAC) in newborn blood samples dried on filter paper. ‘Free carnitine and acylcarnitines are markers of oxidative disorders of fatty acid metabolism and organ- ic aciduria, while amino acids are biomarkers for aminoacidopathies. Elevated succinylacetone is an indica- tion for tyrosinemia,’ the manufac- turer explains. ‘As a unique feature, NeoMass AAAC also enables the detection of all urea cycle dis- orders by including a methodology to meas- ure NAGS, CSP1 and OTC deficiencies together with the already detected deficiencies.’ The easy-to-use kit, which can determine 15 amino acids and 13 (acyl)carnitines and SUAC, includes internal standards necessary for measuring all of these analytes. It also includes three controls: at endogenous, cut-off and abnormal levels, the firm adds. ‘The extrac- tion process is fast, applying a non- derivatised protocol. This assay has performed excellently regarding reproducibility and clinical accuracy.’ Labsystems Diagnostics also pro- vides several traditional newborn screening assays, including a panel of eight fluorometric NBS assays, all available on the fully automated platform NS2400. in addition to the pre-treatment that is included in the microtiter plate,’ the manufacturer adds. Other key features include low sample volume, 100% automatable on open ELISA instruments, break- able wells format, calibration against the Thienpont’s reference measure- ment procedure LC-MS/MS accord- ing to the Vitamin D Standardisation Programme (VDSP) and a 30-month shelf life. With this additional assay in its product line, the manufacturer says it has become the expert in Vitamin D measurement: ‘The complete portfo- lio offers solutions for the measure- ment of 25OH Vitamin D, free 25OH Vitamin D and 1,25(OH)2 Vitamin D, both in RIA and ELISA formats.’ Additionally, the firm’s Cortisol All In One radioactive assay, validated for use with serum, plasma, urine and saliva samples, is also avail- able. ‘The use of saliva presents the advantages that the sample collec- tion is non-invasive, avoids stress induced rise in cortisol secretion, can be performed easily using dedi- cated Salivette,’ DIAsource explains. ‘Moreover, saliva is an excellent medi- um to measure steroids, because it’s a natural ultra-filtrate of blood and provides measurement of the free cortisol, which is the best indicator of a biological active hormone.’ In addition, with the Cortisol-RIA-CT (KIPI28000) no extraction is required to use the four different sample types, calibrated against the LC-MS reference method.
