Kits intended for in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) are not available for the US-market.
In contrast to kits for in-vitro-diagnostic (IVD), kits meant for research use only (RUO) do have a R in the last position of the catalog number. |
Sample collection & storage | Spontaneous or 24-hours urine, collected in a bottle containing 10-15 mL of 6 M HCl. Storage at -20°C. for long periods (up to 6 months) |
Sample preparation | Sample hydrolysis (30 min) and acetylation (15min) |
ELISA | Metanephrine antiserum incubation (30 min), revelation and read steps (30h) |
