Varelisa ReCombi ANA Profile is designed for the qualitative determination of eight antinuclear antibodies including dsDNA, Sm (B, B’ & D), RNP (68 kDa, A & C), SS-A/Ro (52 kDa & 60 kDa), SS-B/La, Scl-70, Jo-1 and centromere in individual microwells. It uses human serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis of systemic rheumatic diseases.
The profile incorporates antigens that are produced primarily by this company’s antigen technology. Human recombinant antigens are expressed in a eukaryotic (nonbacterial) cell system maintaining the native structure in the human body, which can result in accurate results.
The total assay time for the ELISA procedure is 90 minutes at room temperature. Ready-to-use reagents and breakaway microwells help to increase laboratory efficiency . The assay procedure can be run manually or automated. A software package to assist with data reduction is available . Pharmacia & Upjohn
