FAQs
The calprotectin immunoturbidimetric assay (80-CALPHU-IT200, -100) is 510(k)-cleared in the U.S., IVDD in the EU, and has been submitted for review by Health Canada.
It is recommended to run calibrators once per month and with every kit lot change. Two controls are typically run each day calprotectin testing is performed.
Unlike traditional ELISA, which could have up to 22 non-reportables per run (8 calibrators and 3 controls in duplicate), the immunoturbidimetric assay requires only two non-reportables (2 controls) per day, easily accommodating low volume to high volume testing at a competitive cost per test.
