What is it indicated for?

For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Cl- Slides quantitatively measure chloride (Cl) concentration in serum and plasma. Chloride measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of electrolyte and metabolic disorders such as cystic fibrosis and diabetic acidosis.

For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Calibrator Kit 2 is used to calibrate the VITROS Chemistry Systems for the quantitative measurement of CHOL, Cl-, ECO2, HDLC, K +, Na +, and TRIG.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
