Wako Direct Bilirubin L-Type is a liquid stable reagent for the quantitative determination of direct bilirubin in serum and plasma.

Product information

Direct Bilirubin L-Type Assay is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test for the quantitative determination of Direct Bilirubin (D-BIL) in serum and plasma.

In human blood, bilirubin exists in two forms. Unconjugated (indirect) bilirubin is transported to the liver bound by albumin where it is conjugated with glucuronic acid and excreted as direct bilirubin. Elevated serum bilirubin is indicative of impairment of the liver. The increase in total bilirubin, associated with obstructive jaundice, is primarily due to the direct bilirubin.

Direct Bilirubin L-Type Assay is a liquid type reagent that is based on a chemical oxidation method utilizing vanadate as an oxidizing agent (vanadate oxidation method).

Reagent 1, Reagent 2 and a calibrator are required for this assay.

All reagents and calibrators are CE-certified.
