Sumario: | Background: We evaluated the performance of the Abbott thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) on the Alinity i. Methods: Verification studies for precision, linearity, analytical measuring range, diagnostic cut offs for Graves’ disease were performed. We compared the Abbott CMIA to an established TRAb assay (Roche electrochemiluminescence immunoassay). Method comparison analysis was performed between serum and plasma samples on the Abbott CMIA. Results: Repeatability (CV%) for TRAb were 4.07, 1.56, 0.71 and within-laboratory imprecision (CV%) were 4.07, 1.90, 0.71 at 3.0, 10.0, 30.0 IU/L of TRAb, respectively. Linearity and analytical measuring range were verified from 1.07–47.9 IU/L. The limit of the blank was 0 IU/L, limit of detection was 0.15 IU/L, and limit of quantification was 0.5 IU/L. Passing-Bablok analysis showed agreement between the two assays; Y-intercept = 0.787, slope = 1.04. Passing-Bablok analysis also showed agreement between the plasma and serum samples run on the Abbott CMIA; Y-intercept −0.17, slope = 0.97. Conclusions: The Abbott TRAb CMIA on the Alinity i performs within the manufacturer claims for assay precision, linearity, analytical measuring range, limit of blank, limit of detection, limit of quantitation and diagnostic cut offs for Graves’ disease. Thus, the Abbott TRAb CMIA on the Alinity i is fit for clinical use. |
