[Determination of fructosamine on the Cobas-Bio centrifuge system. Importance of white reagent]. / Dosage de la fructosamine sur appareil centrifuge Cobas-Bio. Importance du blanc réactif.

ABSTRACT

An automated assay for fructosamine on Cobas-Bio centrifugal analyzer with subtracting the contribution of the albumin matrix present in standards is described. This rapid and simple test has suitable analytical performances. Fructosamine concentrations were measured in 100 healthy subjects and in 95 diabetic patients. For the diabetic patients, results were compared with those obtained from a commercialized test kit.
