BKM-33560
The Access Testosterone assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination total testosterone levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.
| Assay Features | • 16 minute time to first result—reduces critical waiting time for physicians and patients • Competitive dynamic range (0.1 – 16 ng/mLor 0.35 - 55.5 nmol/L)—reduces the need for sample dilution and saves time • Serum and heparinized plasma are compatible with the assay—provides testing flexibility |

The Access Testosterone assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination total testosterone levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems. The Access Testosterone assay is a competitive binding immunoenzymatic assay. A sample is added to a reaction vessel along with Sample Treatment Solution, mouse monoclonal anti-testosterone antibody, testosterone alkaline phosphatase conjugate, and paramagnetic particles coated with goat anti-mouse polyclonal antibody. Testosterone in the sample is released from the carrier proteins by the Sample Treatment Solution and competes with the testosterone alkaline phosphatase conjugate for binding sites on a limited amount of specific anti-testosterone monoclonal antibody. The resulting antigen-antibody complexes are then bound to the solid phase by the capture antibody.
