The carbon dioxide assay kit is compatible with a range of laboratory equipment

The measurement of carbon dioxide in serum is vital for assessing respiratory function and metabolic status. Elevated or decreased levels of CO2 can indicate underlying health issues that require further investigation. By utilizing this assay kit, healthcare professionals can obtain accurate and timely results, which are essential for making informed clinical decisions.

The carbon dioxide assay kit includes multiple reagents formatted for optimal performance. The specification for Reagent 1 comprises:
60 x 2: Two sets of 60 determinations
80 x 2: Two sets of 80 determinations
50 x 2: Two sets of 50 determinations
These specifications allow for flexibility in usage, accommodating various sample sizes and testing requirements.

The Carbon Dioxide Assay Kit is compatible with a range of laboratory equipment, ensuring ease of integration into existing workflows. It is suitable for use with:
7170 Series
7060 Series
Beckman CX Series
LX20 Series
DXC600/800 Series
AU Series
TBA 120FR
TBA 2000FR
TBA 40FR
This compatibility with multiple platforms enhances its utility in clinical laboratories, allowing for seamless implementation in routine diagnostic procedures.

The kit serves as an important adjunct in diagnosing conditions linked to abnormal CO2 levels. For instance, in cases of adrenal hypercorticism, elevated CO2 levels may be indicative of metabolic dysregulation. In patients experiencing respiratory obstruction or pulmonary edema, analyzing CO2 levels aids in evaluating the effectiveness of ventilation and oxygenation.

Furthermore, the assay can provide insights into the severity of pulmonary diseases, guiding therapeutic interventions and monitoring the progress of treatment. By quantifying CO2 levels, healthcare providers can make more accurate assessments of a patient’s respiratory and metabolic health.
