Human Kappa (ƙ) & Lambda (λ) Free Light Chain reagents validated for use on the QuidelOrtho VITROS® 5600/XT 7600 Integrated System and VITROS® 4600 Chemistry System

Diazyme’s Free Light Chain Assays utilize a cost effective latex particle enhanced immunoturbidimetric methodology that provides accurate, reliable testing across the full analytical range. Both assays display excellent precision at the low end while its liquid stable format requires no reagent preparation saving time and reducing sample handling.
The measurement of Kappa FLC in combination with Lambda FLC aids in the diagnosis of plasma cell disorders such as multiple myeloma, lymphocytic neoplasms, Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia, amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis, light chain deposition disease and connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus.1-5
Human Kappa (ƙ) & Lambda (λ) Free Light Chain

- To consolidate testing both assays can be run on the VITROS® 5600 System and VITROS® 4600 System; eliminating the need for standalone systems
- Fast test results for a rapid turnaround time
- Reduce waste and operational expenses with the reagents extended on-board stability of up to four weeks (30 days)
- Formatted liquid reagents ready-to-use, requiring no preparation, saving time and reducing sample handling errors
Now validated for use on QuidelOrtho VITROS® 5600/XT 7600 Integrated System and VITROS® 4600 Chemistry System
