Laborantlar için Bilgiler

The 3gAllergy™ assay is the first third-generation assay detecting allergen-specific IgE, which aids physicians in their diagnosis and allows for early treatment. The assay delivers fast, reliable results—helping physicians identify allergies quicker.

Siemens' proprietary liquid allergens are the key to making IMMULITE^® 2000 and IMMULITE^® 2000 XPi Immunoassay allergy tests sensitive, specific, and reliable. The soluble polymer/copolymer support for the allergens increases the number of binding sites and their accessibility to allergen-specific IgE antibodies. Enzyme-enhanced chemiluminescent signal detection provides increased sensitivity and the proprietary wash technique enhances specificity.

Third-generation Sensitivity
Zero Calibrator: Another Unique Feature
Siemens’ zero calibrator provides greater sensitivity and precision at the low end of the calibration curve, ensuring a detection limit of 0.1 kU/L.

3gAllergy Assay Products*
Allergy products from Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics address the needs of both patients and healthcare professionals. You'll find a broad menu of allergy tests on the IMMULITE^® 2000 and IMMULITE^® 2000 XPi Immunoassay systems specifically designed to aid in the screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of allergy patients.

3gAllergy™ Universal Kit
This is the basic component of the module-based specific allergen testing procedure. With the Universal Kit, one master curve applies to all specific allergens and panels. Available on IMMULITE 2000 and IMMULITE^® 2000 XPi Immunoassay system.

Immunoassay Tests for Specific Allergens and Panels
Individual barcoded vials of a specific allergen or panel are used to determine the specific IgE in the patient samples. 3gAllergy Universal kit is required.

An expanding allergy menu of specific allergens and allergen panels in the following categories:

• Animals
• Food
• Grasses
• House Dust
• Insects
• Medicines
• Mites
• Molds
• Occupational
• Parasites
• Trees
• Weeds

Immunoassay Tests for Initial Screening
Total IgE
The quantitative test for total IgE to confirm or exclude atopic allergy in patients. Available for use on IMMULITE^®, IMMULITE 2000 and IMMULITE^® 2000 XPi Immunoassay systems.

Now you can run allergy testing alongside your routine and specialty immunoassays
