## Indications for use
The Randox Laboratories Ltd. Theophylline Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of theophylline in serum. The method is a latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay based on the principle of measuring changes in scattered light. Latex particles are coated with theophylline which, in the presence of theophylline antibody solution, rapidly agglutinate. When a sample containing theophylline is introduced the agglutination reaction is partially inhibited, slowing down the agglutination process. The rate of agglutination is inversely dependent on the concentration of theophylline in the sample. By monitoring the change in scattered light as a change in absorbance, a concentration curve can be obtained. The actual change in absorbance is inversely proportional to the concentration of theophylline in the sample. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of theophylline overdose and in monitoring levels of theophylline to ensure appropriate therapy. This Application Sheet has been developed for the Hitachi 717 analyser and must be used by suitably qualified laboratory personnel under appropriate laboratory conditions.
