Samples: Fresh Kidney specimens from 111 individual patients
Slope = 1.00 (0.90 to 1.09)
y-int = -0.514 (-1.01 to 0.074)
Corr Coef (R)= 0.95
R2= 0.91
N=111
23

Samples: Archived Heart specimens from 68 individual patients
Slope = 1.05  (1.00 to 1.10)
y-int = -0.69 (-0.93 to –0.41)
Corr Coef (R)= 0.99
R2=0.98
N=126
24
Study with Fresh and Frozen Samples
  • Purpose:
  •    To investigate any degradation of sample or lack of it by testing fresh and frozen samples side by side using the immunoassay.


  • Sites:
    • Cleveland Heart Center
    • Ohio State University
    • University of Wisconsin
25
Study with Fresh and Frozen Samples
  • There was no trend in kidney sample degradation when stored frozen for 28 days or refrigerated for 2 weeks.

Fresh vs. Frozen Study Kidney Patients cont…
  • Graphical representation of each patient sample
28
Fresh vs. Frozen Study cont…
  • Samples collected from 13 heart transplant patients at the Cleveland Clinic
  • Samples returned to Seradyn for analysis same day of draw
  • Samples aliquoted and tested at each time point
  • Results compared to day 0 for percent recovery.

Analytical Sensitivity (LDD)

  • This was performed by running the zero calibrator N=20 times against a calibration curve then performing the following calculation:


32
Functional Sensitivity (LOQ)
33
Low and High Hematocrit Interference
34
Interfering Substances
35
Total Precision

  • Each sample was assayed in duplicate 2 runs per day for 20 non-consecutive days.  Recalibration was performed 3 times as needed.


  • Data was collected and analyzed per NCCLS guidelines.
