An evaluation of the Technicon RA-1000 random-access analyzer.
We evaluated the Technicon RA-1000 analyzer, with emphasis on its potential for user-defined method development. Optical linearity and sample pipetting linearity were good. The reagent pipetting system delivered slightly less than the nominal amount, owing to the volumetric effect of added mixing bubbles. Carryover of aqueous solutions was negligible. The instrument had good adaptability for us...
متن کاملExact, Nonparametric Inference When Doses Are Measured With Random Errors
Studies that estimate the effects of exposure to a possibly harmful agent often compare exposed subjects who received varied doses with matched controls who received zero dose. If the doses are measured with error, then one may wish to use the fallible doses to estimate a linear relationship between the unobserved true dose and the observed response. If one is willing to assume that the dose er...
متن کاملDeterminations of immunoglobulins G, A, and M in the Technicon RA-1000.
We evaluated the Technicon RA-1000 "Random Access" analyzer for the measurements of immunoglobulins G, A, and M in serum by turbidimetry. For various concentrations of serum pools the total CV ranged from 3.0 to 4.5% for IgG, from 3.1 to 3.2% for IgA, and from 4.8 to 5.4% for IgM. The linearity of the standard curves was good in the clinically useful ranges. Results for patients' samples correl...
متن کاملPlasma Triglyceride Concentrations
Reduced plasma levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are associated with increased risk for coronary heart disease. Although plasma HDL levels are, in general, inversely related to plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations, a small proportion of individuals with low HDL cholesterol concentrations have normal plasma TG levels. We wished to determine whether subjects with low plasma ...
