The Quantum Blue® reader analyses the signal intensity from the test and control line to give a quantitative value and is standardised with the BÜHLMANN fCAL™ ELISA. This diagnostic tool enables a rapid gatekeeper strategy based on calprotectin levels in patient stool samples to support the physician’s decision on whether to prepare patients for colonoscopy or to treat them for the symptoms associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and other gastric conditions. Correlation Across the Healthcare Network: Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve Analysis for different fecal calprotectin methods. Quantum Blue ® fCAL Assays Product code Description Pack Size LF-CHR25 Quantum Blue® fCAL high range 100-1800 µg/g 25 tests LF-CALE25 Quantum Blue® fCAL extended range 30-1000 µg/g 25 tests BI-POCTR-ABS3 Quantum Blue Reader 3rd Generation 1 unit BÜHLMANN Laboratories Calprotectin ELISA: Quantitative High Throughput Test The BÜHLMANN fCAL ELISA method is the most popular method for ELISA calprotectin testing in the UK, with a flexi-strip format for large and small volume users. There is excellent correlation with the BÜHLMANN Quantum Blue and fCAL turbo methods so laboratories who are looking to scale up their testing either to or from fCAL ELISA get a continuity of result which is very important in ensuring a smooth transition. Assay Details: n Measurable range is 10-600 µg/g or 30-1800 µg/g: same test kit, two different protocols n Easily automated on ELISA processors with protocol available for the DS2® and DSX® n The kit includes all calibrators and quality controls ready to use n Excellent correlation with endoscopic findings and clinical outcome n Linear beyond the stated range Calprotectin ELISA Product code Description Pack Size EK-CAL fCAL ELISA single plate 96 wells EK-CAL2-WEX fCAL ELISA two plates without buffer 192 wells BÜHLMANN Laboratories ROC analysis for IBD/IBS differentiation ROC Area Under the Curve (AUC) = 0.939 Using the calprotectin to monitor patients can also determine the level of severity of the disease activity:
