Evaluation of the ARCHITECT STAT troponin-I assay.

We evaluated the immunoassay for troponin I (TnI) which is now available on the integrated ARCHITECT analyzer ci8200 from Abbott. Coefficients of variation (CV) for between-day imprecision were 5.6%, 4.

Reference intervals for thyroid hormones on the architect analyser.

The objective of this study was to establish reference intervals for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3), total thyronine (TT4) and total triiodothyronine (TT3) on the Architect i2000 analyser (Abbott). Serum samples were obtained from apparently healthy adults (n=217, age 18-90 years) excluding individuals taking oral contraceptives or under hormone replacement therapy. The second group were ambulatory euthyroid patients (n=323) excluding those with a history of thyroid disorders.
