This document provides instructions for using a lipase reagent kit to quantify lipase levels in human serum or plasma samples. The kit uses a methyl resorufin method to measure the rate at which lipase hydrolyzes a synthetic substrate. The rate of methylresorufin formation is proportional to the lipase concentration in the sample. The reagent consists of two parts that are mixed with the sample and calibrator. The absorbance is then read to determine the lipase level using a calculation comparing the sample and calibrator readings. Normal lipase levels are up to 60 U/L but each laboratory should establish its own reference range.

INTENDED USE GENERAL SYSTEM PARAMETER This reagent is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of lipase in human Mode of Reaction Kinetic Fixed Time serum or plasma. Slope of reaction Increasing Increasing - Methyl resorufin method Wavelength 580 nm 580 nm - Linear up to 300 U/L Temperature 37 0C 37 0C - Reagent is ready for use Calibrator concentration As on the vial As on the vial CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Linearity 300 U/L 300 U/L Lipase is a pancreatic enzyme necessary for the absorption and digestion of Blank Reagent Reagent nutrients that catalyses the hydrolysis of glycerol esters of fatty acids. Determination Delay time 120 sec. 120 sec of lipase is used for diagnosis of diseases such as acute and chronic pancreatitis No of reading 2 - and obstruction of the pancreatic duct. Clinical diagnosis should not be made on a Interval 60 sec 120 sec single test result; it should integrate clinical and other laboratory data. Sample volume 20 μL 20 μL PRINCIPLE Reagent volume 1250 μL (1000+250) 1250 μL (1000 + 250) In the presence of colipase and bile acids lipase splits the synthetic substrate (1,2- Cuvette 1cm light path 1 cm light path O-Dilauryl-rac-glycero-3-glutaricacid (6-methyl-resorufin-ester) to glycerol and LABORATORY PROCEDURE methylresorufin-ester, which is spontaneously degraded to glutaric acid and methylresorufin. The rate of methylresorufin formation, measured photometrically Blank Calibrator Sample is proportional to the catalytic concentration of lipase present in the sample.
