## Indications for use
The TC Matrix Clinical Chemistry Analyzer is a discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use. The device is intended to duplicate manual analytical procedures by automatically various steps such as pipetting, heating, and measuring color intensity. This device is intended for use in conjunction with certain materials to measure a variety of analytes of clinical interest in serum, plasma samples. TECO MULTI Calibrator is intended for the calibration of quantitative assays. Teco Albumin reagent is intended to measure the albumin concentration in serum and plasma. Albumin measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases involving primarily the liver or kidneys. Teco ALT reagent is intended to measure the activity of the enzyme alanine amino transferase (ALT) (also known as a serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase or SGPT) in serum and plasma. Alanine amino transferase measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of certain liver diseases (e.g., viral hepatitis and cirrhosis) and heart diseases. Teco Glucose reagent is intended for the quantitative determination of total glucose in human serum or plasma. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma. Teco BUN reagent is intended to measure urea nitrogen (an end-product of nitrogen metabolism) in serum or plasma. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of certain renal and metabolic diseases.
