Q

principle of tietz-fiereck turbidimetry assay

A

the lipolytic action of lipase in the serum hydrolyzes the olive oil emulsion to fatty acids, mono and di-glycerides and glycerol. The decrease in turbidity at 550 nm is proportional to the lipase activity of the serum

25
what is the disadvanatage of amyloclastic and saccharogenic methods of somogyi
long incubation time endogenous glucose interference unstable reaction colors resulting in poor reproducibility and reliability
26
several procedures have been suggested such as the ______, however they are still subjected to long incubation time, endogenous glucose interference and interference in the formation of NADH
use of defined substrate maltoteraose
27
he introduce a substrate that will eliminate the interference from endogenous glucose and pyruvate
wallenfells et.al.
28
wallenfells et.al he introduce a substrate that will eliminate the interference from endogenous glucose and pyruvate what substrate is it?
p-Nitrophenylglycosides
29
the present procedure is based on the modification of __
wallenfells et.al
30
the present procedure we are doing right now is based on the modification of wallenfells et.al's method. What could be the modification?
p-Nitrophenyl-D-Maltoheptaoside with the terminal glucose blocked to reduce spontaneous degradation of substrate by glucosidase and glucoamylase
31
the modified method of wallenfells is performed in what mode
kinetic mode with very short time lag and offers much greater stability than previous amylase methodologies.
32
the determination of amylase activity in what sample is most commonly performed for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis
serum and urine
33
in acute pancreatitis, amylase levels are elevated for longer periods of time in what preferred sample
urine than in serum
34
since urine amylase levels are elevated for longer periods of time in urine, determining the ratio of amylase and ____ is important in followng the course of the pancreatitis
creatinine clearances
35
give the first reaction of amylase determination
PNPG7 ----- amylase ------- PNPG3+Maltotetraose
36
2nd reaction in amylase determination
PNPG3 ---- glucoamylase --- PNPG1 + glucose
37
3rd reaction of amylase determination
PNPG1--- glucosidase ----p-Nitrophenol+glucose
38
amylase hydrolyze p-nitrophenyl-D-maltoheptaoside to form
p-nitrophenylmaltotriose
39
p-nitrophenylmaltotriose will be hydrolyze glucosidase to form
p-nitrophenylglucoside
40
p-nitrophenylglucoside will be hydrolyze again by glucosidase to form
p-nitrophenol + glucose
41
the end product, p-nitrophenol + glucose, will form a result color of
yellow
42
the rate of ____ in absorbance is measured in 405 nm and is proportional to the amylase activity in the sample
increase
43
nm use for amylase
405 nm
44
reagent compositions
p-nitrophenyl-D-maltoheptaoside glucosidase glucoamylase sodium chloride calcium chloride buffer 50 ml
45
the reagents are intended to use only in ____
in vitro
46
we must store the dry reagent in what temp
2-8 * C refrigerated
47
48
reagent are stable until when
expiration label
49
reconstituted reagent is stable for at least how many days at room temp 15-30*C
10 days
50
reconstituted reagent is stable for at least how many days at refrigerated temp 2-8
30 days
51
the reagent should be discarded if
turbidity has occurred; turbidity may be a sign of contamination moisture has penetrated the vial and caking has occurred reagent does not dissolve completely upon reconstitution the reconstituted reagent has an absorbance of 0.70 or greater when measured against water at 405 nm
52
if the reconstituted reagent has an absorbance of 0.90 upon measuring against water blank at 405 nm, what is the next course of action?
discard the reagent, the reconstituted reagent must have an absorbance of lower than 0.70
53
the ideal specimen for amylase
serum
54
can we use plasma in amylase?
yes, only heparinized plasma
55
why do other anticoagulant such as citrate and EDTA are not used for amylase determination
such anticoagulants bind with calcium which is the ion needed for amylase activity, so only heparin is allowed for plasma use
56
urine specimen must be collected in ____ period
24 hr period
57
urine specimen must be collected in 24 hr period and the pH must be adjusted to
pH 7 with either 0.1 N NaOH or 0.1 N HCl and keep refrigerated
58
do we need to add preservative to the urine sample?
no need for that

amylase in serum and urine is reported stable for how many days or weeks in room temp 18-25*C
1 week
60

several months
61
macroamylasemia ___ activity of pancreatic amylase in serum
increases
62
a number of diseases can affect the determination of amylase true or false
true the fire
63
who listed drugs and other substances that can interfere in amylase activity
young et.al
64
lipemia, hemolysis, will ____amylase values
increase
65
can insulin affect amylase determination?
yes
66
how many minutes we need to prewarm the reagent
3 minutes
67
how many minutes do we need to read the sample for amylase
read first at 15 seconds then read for every 30 sconds
68
the formula for amylase
abs/min X 1.025 X 1000 divide them by 8.5 X 0.025 X 1
69
shortcut for amylase
abs/min X 4824
70
how do you get the abs/min then?
minus minus plus then divide by 4
71
to convert to SI units (nkat/L) the amylase
multiply to 16.67
72
linearity for amylase
1500 IU/L
73
if the linearity exceed for amylase, what should we do
dilute with an equal volume of saline and reru the multiply the result by 2
74
ref range for amylase in serum
up yo 96 IU/L
75
ref range for amylase in URINE
