Abstract:
A method for determining the amount of a specific analyte by photometric assays, wherein the specific analyte in a sample reacts with an analyte specific reaction partner in a reaction mixture. At least two calibration curves are generated, the first calibration curve recorded at a first wavelength is optimized for low concentrations of the specific analyte thereby maximizing the lower detection limit and, the second calibration curve recorded at a second wavelength is optimized for high concentrations of the specific analyte thereby maximizing the upper detection limit. The optimized lower detection limit and the optimized upper detection limit results in an extended dynamic range.

Claim (Index 12):
A computer-implemented method of determining the optimal wavelength, reaction time and threshold according to  claim 1 , comprising the steps of:\n a) receiving a dataset representing the absorbance values of the samples recorded at multiple wavelengths over the complete reaction time simultaneously available on an analyzer, wherein said dataset includes a plurality of data points for:\n standards for the calibration, \n a blank sample for determination of lower detection limit, \n at least 2 samples for the determination of the precision, and/or \n dilution series; \n b) setting the threshold values at a concentration where the calibration curves change from the first to the second calibration curve, by using for lower concentrations the first calibration curve for the analyte quantification and by using for higher concentrations the second calibration curve for the analyte quantification; and c) determining the first and second wavelength as well as the first and the second reaction time, analyzing the kinetic curves and selecting the optimal set up for the first calibration curve and the second calibration curve.
