What is it indicated for?
The Sentinel Iron Liquid is a direct colorimetric in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of Iron without deproteinization in human serum and plasma (heparin salts, only).
Iron (non-heme) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases such as iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis (a disease associated with widespread deposit in the tissues of two iron-containing pigments, hemosiderin and hemofuscin, and characterized by pigmentation of the skin), and chronic renal disease.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
