Hemolysis, icterus, and lipemia (HIL) are the most commonly tested interferences that may affect the integrity of patient samples in the clinical laboratory. Most major chemistry test platforms include an automated HIL detection feature while some QC lab personnel visually inspect samples. Detect pre-analytical interferences Similar to patient samples Reduce human errors Identify potential drifts and failures Key benefits of Serum Indices Products Improves detection of pre-analytical interferences Monitors instrument response in detection of HIL interferences for the majority of common chemistry test systems Can be used on most major chemistry test instruments, including Abbott, Beckman, Roche, Ortho, and Siemens Human-sourced materials are similar to patient samples, adding confidence Monitoring automated HIL detection helps reduce costly human errors Access to peer group comparisons helps identify potential drift and failure Serum Indices products Liquichek Serum Indices, Hemolysis Product details Features Monitors instrument response in the detection of hemolyzed samples Prepared from human source material 4 mL Hemolysis, MiniPak Open-vial stability 14 days open-vial (2 to 8°C), 14 days unopened (2 to 8°C), 28 days frozen aliquot (–20 to –70°C) Shelf life 2 years (–20 to –70°C) Pre-analytical monitoring HIL interferences Hemolysis Liquichek Serum Indices, Icterus Product details Features Monitors instrument response in the detection of icteric samples Prepared from human source material 4 mL Icterus, MiniPak Open-vial stability 14 days open-vial (2 to 8°C), 14 days unopened (2 to 8°C), 28 days frozen aliquot (–20 to –70°C) Shelf life 2 years (–20 to –70°C) Pre-analytical monitoring HIL interferences Icterus Liquichek Serum Indices, Lipemia Product details Features Monitors instrument response in the detection of lipemic samples Prepared from human source material 4 mL Lipemia, MiniPak Open-vial stability 14 days open-vial (2 to 8°C), 14 days unopened (2 to 8°C), 28 days frozen aliquot (–20 to –70°C) Shelf life 2 years (–20 to –70°C) Pre-analytical monitoring HIL interferences Lipemia Liquichek Serum Indices, Non-Interfered Product details Features Monitors instrument response in the detection of non-interfered samples Prepared from human source material 4 mL Non-interfered, MiniPak Open-vial stability 14 days open-vial (2 to 8°C), 14 days unopened (2 to 8°C), 28 days frozen aliquot (–20 to –70°C) Shelf life 2 years (–20 to –70°C) Pre-analytical monitoring HIL interferences Non-interfered Frequently asked questions I visually inspect for interferences in my patient sample. Why should I use Liquichek Serum Indices? What if I don't have time to track performance for each of my instruments for HIL detection? Pre-analytical testing of the instrument to detect HIL interferences is not mandated by regulations, so what is the value in performing these tests? What instruments are compatible with Liquichek Serum Indices?
