Direct Free T4 RIA by Equilibrium Dialysis

 

 

Free Thyroxine Hormone RIA Test Kit by Equilibrium Dialysis using the QD-Cell™ system.

 

The free thyroxine by equilibrium dialysis RIA Test Kit is a radioimmunoassay for direct measurement of free thyroxine (T4) after equilibrium dialysis. The dialysis is performed using a QD-Cell™ Disposable Quantitative Dialysis Cell.
Sample Preparation:
200 µL of a sample and 1350 µL of dialysis buffer are added to a sample and buffer compartment. The serum sample is allowed to dialyze for 17 hours at 37°C. 700µL of dialysate is then used in an RIA procedure for determining the concentration of free T4.
