Total CO2 assay kit CD4006

for clinical chemistryenzymatic

Exceptional correlation with standard methods The Randox methodology was compared against other commercially available methods and the Randox CO2 Total assay showed a correlation coefficient of r=0.94 Wide measuring range The healthy range for CO2 Total is 18 – 28 mmol/l. The Randox CO2 Total assay can comfortably detect levels outside of this healthy range measuring between 0.004 – 50 mmol/l Suitable for use on a range of automated analysers The Randox CO2 Total reagent is suitable for use on a number of third party automated analysers.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a metabolic waste product of cellular respiration. It is transported in the bloodstream to the lungs and expelled from the body. CO2 exists in the body in two forms: 90% exists as bicarbonate (HCO3) and the remaining exists as carbonic acid (H2CO3) or dissolved CO2. The kidneys and lungs are responsible for the regulation on CO2, H2CO3 and HCO3 in the blood. What is the CO2 Total assay used for? The Randox CO2 Total assay is used for the quantitative in vitro determination of CO2 in serum and plasma. It aids in diagnosing diseases associated with high and low levels of CO2 in the bloodstream.
