====== ** Instruction for Ferritin calibrator ** ====== - 3 level of calibrator ,frozen powered form - keep at room temperature for 10-15 min - reconstitute with 1 ml of QC water - Make 5 cup of 200 microliter of each level - 1 cup of each l;evel will be used for calibration - Remained 4 cup of each calibrator label it and barcode it and place in a urine microcontained and label those as a fresh cup and use this for next time calibration - retained sample of calibration will be kept in its original bottle ,parafilmed it and place in urine microcontained and label of used cup - Kept all these cup used as well as fresh in friedge no-16 -{{ :nchsls:c:biochemistry:document:ferr_gem1340_ww_en_i_10_1.pdf |}}[kit literature of Ferritin ] ======VITROS 3600====== |[[Centrifugation, Preparing aliquot, how_to_perform_examination_in_VITROS 3600]]| |[[INTERNAL QUALITY CONTROL]]| |[[EQA For VITROS_3600 Chemianalyzer Tests]]| {{ :nchsls:c:biochemistry:document:lot_verification_of_vitros-3600.ods |}} ======== ** Ferritin guideline ** ======== * Ferritine is good marker of **iron store** and should be used to diagnose iron deficiency * Ferritine concentration should not be used alone to identify risk for iron overload so patient with elevated feriitine should receive clinical and laboratory evaluation. =====Serum ferritine in iron deficiency===== * In **healthy** individual,infants and young children <12 ug/L. * In children 5 to 10 years, adult and pregnant women <15 ug/L. * In **infammation or infection**,infants and young children <30 ug/L. * In children 5 to 10years adult and pregnant women <70 ug/L. =====Serum ferritine in risk of iron overload===== * In **healthy individual**, In children 5 to 10 years, in adult menstruating female >150 ug/L and in male >200 ug/L. * In **Non healthy individual**, In children 5 to 10years adult and older person >500 ug/L
