Diazyme Enzymatic Homocysteine Assay is intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of total L-homocysteine in serum and heparin plasma. The reagents can assist in diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected in having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria.

Diazyme Homocysteine Enzymatic Assay Kit contains a single calibrator. The calibrator is used to generate a calibration point that will be used in the calculation of homocysteine concentrations in unknown serum samples.

Diazyme Homocysteine Enzymatic Assay has controls for normal serum homocysteine level and abnormal serum homocysteine level. The controls are used as reference samples for checking the functionality of the Diazyme Homocysteine Enzymatic Assay.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA 510(k) statement.
