Immunoglobulins are the most important part of the humoral immune system of the organism. Of clinical interest are immunoglobulin deficiencies and increased levels of the immunoglobulins. Changes in serum immunoglobulin concentrations can be classified as follows:

Hypogammaglobulinemias: Individuals with secretory IgA deficiency are found to suffer more commonly from mucosal infections, atopy, and autoimmune diseases. Individuals with absent IgA have a higher than expected incidence of rheumatic disorders and lymphoma.

Polyclonal gammopathies: Increased levels occur in chronic liver disease, chronic infections, especially of the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, neoplasia of the lower gastrointestinal tract, inflammatory bowel disease, some immunodeficiency states such as Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis.

Monoclonal gammopathies: IgA multiple myeloma

Immunoturbidimetric test for the quantitative determination of immunoglobulin A (IgA) in human serum
IgG is particularly important in the body's long-term defence against infection as it presents a slower but more sustained response than IgM to primary antigenic stimulus; however, the levels of IgG rise rapidly and early on re-exposure to the same antigenic stimulus. IgG promotes phagocytosis and activates complement. IgG is the only immunoglobulin that crosses the placenta and is therefore of special importance in the infant’s defence against infection. Changes in serum immunoglobulin concentrations can be classified as follows:

Hypogammaglobulinemias: IgG deficiency may be genetic as in severe combined immunodeficiency or acquired as in AIDS. Definitive diagnosis requires extensive evaluation in the immune response. A decrease in IgG also occurs as a result of thermal burns, nephrotic syndrome, protein losing enteropathies and non-IgG myelomas.

Polyclonal gammopathies: Increased levels of IgG in autoimmune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome), sarcoidosis, chronic liver disease, some parasitic diseases and chronic or recurrent infections.

Monoclonal gammopathies: e.g. in IgG type multiple myeloma, lymphomas, leukemia, and other malignancies.

Immunoturbidimetric test for the quantitative determination of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in human serum.
Immunoglobulins are the most important part of the humoral immune system of the organism. The essential functions of IgM in the immune response are the agglutination of pathogens and the activation of the classical complement pathway. Elevated levels of IgM in cord serum or during the first four weeks of life may indicate intrauterine or neonatal infections such as rubella, cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis or syphilis. Changes in serum immunoglobulin concentrations can be classified as follows:

Hypogammaglobulinemias: IgM deficiency is rare and is associated with recurrent pyrogenic infections.

Polyclonal gammopathies: IgM levels are increased in primary biliary cirrhosis, haemoprotozoan infections such as malaria, viral or bacterial infections and rheumatoid arthritis.

Monoclonal gammopathies, e.g. in Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia and malignant lymphoma.

Immunoturbidimetric test for the quantitative determination of immunoglobulin M (IgM) in human serum.
The iron and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) levels are influenced by changes in iron intake, absorption, storage, and release mechanisms. Such changes are indicative of a wide range of dysfunctions including anemias, nephrosis, cirrhosis and hepatitis. Iron measurements are interrelated parameters for the diagnosis of the iron status.

LDL cholesterol (LDL-c) is an independent risk factor for coronary vascular disease (CHD). Epidemiological studies have shown the importance of LDL-c levels for the identification of high risk patients. HDL cholesterol (HDL-c) is regarded a protecting lipid component against coronary vascular disease (CHD). Together with HDL cholesterol LDL cholesterol has a high diagnostic value to estimate the individual risk for CHD.

Homogeneous enzymatic color assay for the quantitative determination of LDL cholesterol in human serum and plasma.
Lipase activity measurements are used primarily to investigate pancreatic disorders, usually pancreatitis. Indications for lipase measurements are detection and exclusion of acute pancreatitis (in acute upper quadrant abdominal pain), chronic (relapsing) pancreatitis, obstruction of the pancreatic duct and detection of pancreatic involvement in abdominal diseases.

Enzymatic colorimetric test for the quantitative determination of lipase in human serum and plasma.
Lp(a) is a risk factor for coronary vascular disease that is independent of all other lipid parameters. The Lp(a) concentration in blood varies from almost undetectable levels to more than 100 mg/dl. Differences in Lp(a) levels are genetically determined and will not be much influenced by lifestyle. The presence of high Lp(a) levels in serum is a significant marker for an increased risk of atherosclerosis and coronary vascular disease, especially when Lp(a) and LDL-c concentrations are elevated simultaneously.

Latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric test for the quantitative determination of lipoprotein (a) in human serum.
Pancreatic amylase activity measurements in serum and urine are mainly applied for the diagnosis of pancreatic disorders as well as for detecting the development of complications. As pancreatic and salivary amylase show a structural homology of 97%, the only method to distinguish is to use an assay based on monoclonal antibodies to inhibit the salivary enzyme. The amylase in the blood is eliminated through the kidneys and excreted into the urine, therefore, elevated serum activity is reflected in the rise of urinary amylase activity. For confirmation of an acute pancreatitis an additional measurement of lipase is recommended.

Enzymatic colorimetric test for the quantitative determination of pancreatic amylase in human serum, plasma and urine.
Inorganic phosphorus (PHOS, PO3) is measured for diagnosis and therapy control of various disorders such as bone diseases, chronic kidney disease, dialysis patients, kidney stones, after thyroid surgery, diseases of the parathyroid gland, chronic alcoholism, in intensive care (parenteral nutrition, ventilated patients), suspected Vit D deficiency, muscle weakness and bone pain.

Hypoproteinemia may be caused by abnormal synthesis, protein malnutrition, protein malabsorption, protein loss and after infusions. Hyperproteinemia may be caused by monoclonal gammopathy, severe chronic inflammatory and autoimmune processes.

Colorimetric test for the quantitative determination of total protein in human serum and plasma.
Transferrin is the principle plasma protein for the transport of iron. Transferrin is a negative acute phase reactant and will decrease during any inflammatory state or malignancy.
