Sumario: | The aim of this study was the development and analytically validation of a radioimmunoassay system for the measurement of the serum ferritin concentration as one of the laboratory biomarkers for infection by Covid-19. The main components of the system were prepared in our laboratories. The first component ferritin was extracted and purified from human spleen with high purity. The second component was the 125I-labelled ferritin tracer, prepared using Chloramine-T method. Furthermore anti-ferritin antibodies and ferritin standards were provided. The developed system is sensitive, precise, reproducible and. can be translated into a kit formulation suitable for measuring serum ferritin for the detection of Covid-19 in patients at low costs and high efficiency. |
