Point-of-care | Quantitative Vitamin D test

The VHC Quantitative Vitamin D Test allow healthcare professionals to measure “point of care” vitamin D in few minutes. 

The test is an immunochromatography-based one step in vitro test. It is designed for the quantitative determination of total 25-hydroxy Vitamin D (25-OH Vitamin D) in human finger-prick blood. This assay provides a preliminary diagnostic test result and can be used for screening of Vitamin D deficiency.

VHC Vitamin-D Quantitative Vitamin D Test utilizes the principle of immunochromatography, a unique two-site “Sandwich” immunoassay on a membrane. The test employs a very “Exclusive” pair of anti-25-OH Vitamin D Monoclonal Antibodies; one conjugated with colloidal gold and another one immobilized on the solid phase. This will selectively detect Vitamin D with a high degree of sensitivity and specificity.

The liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assays or other quantitative immunoassays are recommended to further confirm the diagnostic test results.

Performance characteristics

Sensitivity

The sensitivity of VHC Vitamin-D Quantitative Vitamin D Test is 3ng/ml (7.5nmol/l). The sensitivity was determined by calculating the mean plus 3.3 times of standard deviation of twenty Vitamin D-free serum tests.

Specificity

30 Vitamin D free serum samples were tested and all showed negative results; suggesting 100% specificity. No interference and cross reactivity was observed with Bilirubin, Triglycerides, Cholesterol, Vitamin B12 and Vitamin C.

Accuracy

The accuracy of VHC Vitamin-D Quantitative Vitamin D Test was evaluated using human finger-prick blood samples in comparison with a reference 25OH Vitamin D ELISA assay using corresponding serum samples. The comparison result showed a linear regression with slope of 1.02 and Correlation Coefficient of 92%. In conclusion, VHC Vitamin-D Quantitative Vitamin D Test results of human blood samples showed good agreement with the ELISA results of corresponding serum samples.
The accuracy of VHC Vitamin-D Quantitative Vitamin D Test was also evaluated using 20 serum samples in comparison with LC-MS/MS Assay (“Gold Standard” for 25-OH Vitamin D measurement). The comparison result showed a linear regression with the slope of 0.98 and Correlation Coefficient of 98%. In conclusion, VHC Vitamin-D Quantitative Vitamin D Test results agree closely to the true values generated from LC-MS/MS assay.
