## Indications for use
For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products C3 Reagent is used to quantitatively measure complement C3 (C3) concentration in human serum and plasma. Measurements of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components. For in vitro diagnostic use. VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 20 is used to calibrate VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems for the quantitative measurement of transferrin, C3, C4, IgA, IgG and IgM. For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products Protein Performance Verifiers are assayed controls used to monitor the performance of TRFRN, C3, C4, IgA, IgG and IgM Reagents on VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems. For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products C4 Reagent is used to quantitatively measure complement C4 (C4) concentration in human serum and plasma.
