AACC 2013

AB Sciex has introduced its Sciex IVD-MS kits, which are a new series of reagent kits for in vitro diagnostic use in conjunction with mass spectrometry instrumentation for clinical analysis in Europe. The first kit is focused on vitamin D analysis and is CE-Marked to meet European regulatory requirements.

The Sciex IVD-MS kit for 25-OH vitamin D analysis is designed to help clinicians make diagnoses of vitamin D deficiencies, with the ability to quantitate 25-OH vitamin D2 and 25-OH vitamin D3 in a single run.

Adequate levels of vitamin D have been known for decades to be essential for strong bones. Recent research has linked vitamin D to be important in the prevention of multiple common and serious diseases, such as type 1 diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.

The new IVD-MS kits work with the AB Sciex 3200MD CE-IVD series of MS systems, including the API 3200MD and 3200MD QTRAP LC/MS/MS systems, which the company launched recently in Europe. The intended use of these devices is to identify inorganic or organic compounds in human specimens for clinical use.
