Cena norādīta ar PVN

Etg alcohol test for the detection of Ethyl Glucuronide in human urine. For medical and professional in vitro diagnostic use only. The rapid test for Ethyl Glucuronide (ETG) (Urine) is a rapid chromatographic alcohol immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Ethyl Glucuronide in human urine. The Ethyl Glucuronide identified by the test includes, but is not limited to the metabolites of Ethanol. Ethyl Glucuronide (ETG) is a metabolite of ethyl alcohol that is formed in the body by glucuronidation following exposure to ethanol, such as in the consumption of alcoholic beverages. It is used as a biomarker to test ethanol use and monitor alcohol withdrawal in situations where drinking is prohibited, such as in the military, in professional monitoring programs (health professionals, lawyers, aircraft pilots recovering from addictions), in schools, in liver transplant clinics or in recovering alcoholic patients. ETG can be measured in the urine up to about 80 hours after ingestion of ethanol. ETG is a more accurate indicator of recent exposure to alcohol than measuring ethanol itself. Ethyl glucuronide (ETG) is a metabolite of ethyl alcohol that is formed in the body through glucuronidation following exposure to ethanol, such as after drinking alcoholic beverages. It is used as a biomarker to test ethanol use and to monitor alcohol withdrawal in situations where drinking is prohibited, such as in the military, in professional monitoring programs (healthcare professionals, lawyers, airline pilots in addiction recovery), in schools, following liver transplantation or in the recovery of alcohol-dependent patients. ETG can be measured in urine with traditional laboratory methods (GC/MS or LC/MS) up to about 80 hours after ethanol intake (this data is highly dependent on the amount of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks consumed). ETG is a more accurate indicator of recent exposure to alcohol than measuring the presence of ethanol itself. The rapid test for Ethyl Glucuronide (Urine) is a rapid test that can be performed without the use of instruments. The test uses a monoclonal antibody to selectively detect high levels of ethyl glucuronide in human urine. The rapid test for Ethyl Glucuronide (Urine) gives a positive result when the Ethyl Glucuronide in the urine exceeds 500 ng/ml. The Ethyl Glucuronide Rapid Test Cassette (Urine) is an immunoassay based on the principle of competitive binding. Drugs that may be present in the urine sample compete against the drug conjugate for binding sites on the antibody. During the test, a urine sample migrates upwards by capillary action. Ethyl Glucuronide, if present in the urine sample below 500 ng/mL, will not saturate the binding sites of the antibody-coated particles on the test instrumentation. The antibody coated particles will then be captured by the immobilized Ethyl Glucuronide conjugate and a visible colored line will appear in the test area. The colored line in the test area will not form if the ethyl glucuronide level exceeds 500 ng/mL because it will saturate all binding sites of the anti-ethyl glucuronide antibodies. A drug-positive urine specimen will not produce a colored line in the test zone, while a drug-negative urine specimen or a specimen with a drug concentration below the cut-off level will generate a colored line in the test zone. As a procedural control, a colored line will always appear in the control zone to indicate that the correct volume of sample has been used and that the membrane has been soaked
