The following recommendations apply to ctBil:
Item Description
Units
mol/L
Sample Radiometer recommends that human plasma or serum is
used with pH 7.4 (the analyzer reading). Zero point
sample could be adult sample (ctBil 0 mol/L) and
maximum point could be an unconjugated bilirubin sample
(neonatal) with ctBil 300-400 mol/L.
Averaging repeated measurements on samples from
different donors gives an optimized accuracy of the
correction. Averaging repeated measurements on samples
from the same donor also improves the accuracy.
Commercial bilirubin standards can interfere with bilirubin
measurement because they may have an absorbance
spectrum different from that of human plasma.
