Important sample requirements for external users: Please centrifuge and separate the serum. As the assay will not be completed within 24 hours, freeze serum at -20°C or colder before and during shipment. Limitations of this assay: Heterophilic antibodies in human serum can react with reagent immunoglobulins, interfering with in vitro immunoassays. Patients routinely exposed to animals or to animal serum products can be prone to this. Please contact the laboratory 01 4162012 for further information regarding limitations of this assay.
