ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
A common problem in clinical laboratories is maintaining the stability of analytes during pre-analytical processes. The aim of this study was to systematically summarize the results of a set of studies about the biochemical analytes stability.METHODS:
A literature search was performed on the Advanced search field of PubMed using the keywords "(stability) AND (analytes OR laboratory analytes OR laboratory tests OR biochemical analytes OR biochemical tests OR biochemical laboratory tests)." A total of 56 entries were obtained. After applying the selection criteria, 20 articles were included in the study.RESULTS:
In the 20 included references, up to 123 different analytes were assessed. The 34 analytes in order of the most frequently studied analytes were evaluated Alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, potassium, triglyceride, alkaline phosphatase, creatinine, total cholesterol, albumin, lactate dehydrogenase, sodium, calcium, γ-glutamyltransferase, total bilirubin, urea, creatine kinase, inorganic phosphate, total protein, uric acid, amylase, chloride, high-density lipoprotein, magnesium, glucose, C-reactive protein, bicarbonate, ferritin, iron, lipase, transferrin, cobalamin, cortisol, folate, free thyroxine, and thyroid-stimulating hormone. Stable test results could be varied between 2 hours and 1 week according to the type of samples and/or type of blood collection tubes on a basic classification set as refrigerated or room temperature.CONCLUSIONS:
Biochemical analytes stability could be improved if the best pre-analytical approaches are used.Palavras-chave
