5033 – Anti-dsDNA
Intended Purpose
The Anti-dsDNA is a quantitative immunoassay for the determination of IgG antibodies against double-stranded desoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA) in human serum. The Anti-dsDNA is intended as an aid in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. The immunoassay is designed for manual professional in vitro diagnostic use.
Diagnostic Relevance
The appearance of autoantibodies directed against components of the cell nucleus are characteristic features of systemic autoimmune diseases, especially systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjögren’s syndrome, progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS), mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and dermatomyositis. The detection of autoantibodies in patient sample e.g. plasma and serum, is well established and plays an essential role in the diagnosis of systemic autoimmune diseases. The American College of Rheumatology for SLE identifies antibodies to dsDNA as the hallmark for SLE diagnostics. Generic Assays offers a complete range of serological markers for systemic autoimmune diseases. All assays employ the same scheme and pre-dilution, maximizing laboratory efficiency.
