ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the CEofix™ CDT Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) kit for the detection of ß-2-tranferrin (ß-2-Tf) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). DESIGN ANDMETHOD:
Evaluation was performed according to CLSI EP5-A and EP12-A guidelines.RESULTS:
The method resolved ß-2-Tf from other Tf isoforms. The C50 for ß-Tf was determined to be 0.46 mg/L. Neither hemoglobin nor bilirubin co-migrated with ß-2-Tf.CONCLUSIONS:
The CDT kit can be used for detecting ß-2-Tf in CSF by CE.Palavras-chave
