G6PDH with Buffer
Diagnostic reagent for the in-vitro quantitative determination of G6PDH activity in human RBC’s using Kinetic method.

| Type of specimen | Whole blood sample collected in EDTA, heparin or ACD. Red cell G-6PDH in whole blood is stable for 7 days at 2–8 °C (freezing is not recommended) and unstable in hemolysates. Since activity is reported in terms of number of red cells or grams of hemoglobin, the red cell count or hemoglobin concentration should be determined prior to performing the G-6PDH assay. The integrity of erythrocytes collected in ACD is preserved even after prolonged storage. Red cell counts on specimens collected in heparin become unreliable after about 2 days; for heparinized samples, results are best reported in terms of hemoglobin concentration. |
| Storage | All reagents are stable until the expiry date on the label when properly stored refrigerated at 2–8 °C. The working reagent is prepared by dissolving the content of the vial of R2 with 1 ml of R1; it is stable for 6 hours at room temperature and 5 days when stored at 2–8 °C. Mix gently, avoiding foaming. R3 is ready to use. Let the reagent reach room temperature before use and close immediately after handling. The reagent is normally clear; do not use it if it is turbid. |
