## Indications for use
The Randox Laboratories Limited Uric Acid Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of uric acid in serum. The method used is based on UV detection. Uric acid, which absorbs light at 293nm, is converted by uricase to allantoin, which is non-absorbing at 293nm. The change in absorbance at 293nm due to the disappearance of uric acid is indirectly proportional to the concentration of uric acid in the sample and is measured using a bichromatic (293, 700nm) end-point technique. Uric acid measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous renal and metabolic disorders including renal failure, gout, leukemia, psoriasis, starvation or other wasting conditions and of patients receiving cytotoxic drugs. This application sheet has been developed for the Dade Dimension Clinical Chemistry Analyser and must be used by suitably qualified laboratory personnel under appropriate clinical laboratory conditions.
