INTENDED USE
For the quantitative determination of Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity in serum.  Iron binding capacity measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of anemia.
FOR IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE.

REAGENT PREPARATION
The reagents are ready to use and do not require reconstitution.

STORAGE AND HANDLING
All reagents should be stored refrigerated (2-8°C).  Return all reagents to 2-8°C promptly after use.  Unopened reagents can be used until the expiration date on the package and bottle labels.  Opened reagents can be used for 8 weeks if stored at 2-8°C.

PERFORMANCE
Precision
Within-run (Intra-assay) CV is less than 5% (N=10).

Accuracy
Control serum recovers within 10% of the assigned value.

Correlation
A comparison of the K-ASSAY ®   UIBC and and another company's UIBC assay was performed with the following results:

y = 0.997x - 0.50
r = 0.998
n = 50
x = another company's UIBC assay
y = K-ASSAY ®   UIBC assay

Assay Range
14 - 700 µg/dL

INTERFERENCE
Ascorbic Acid :     No interference up to 50 mg/dL
Bilirubin :     No interference up to 20 mg/dL
