VITROS Chemistry Products CRP Slides:

For in vitro diagnostic use only.

VITROS Chemistry Products CRP Slides quantitatively measure C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration in serum and plasma using VITROS 250/350/5,1 FS and 4600 Chemistry Systems and the VITROS 5600 Integrated System.

C-reactive protein is synthesized by the liver and is one of the acute phase proteins. In the acute phase response, increased concentrations of a number of plasma proteins, including CRP, are observed. CRP concentration measurements are useful in the detection and evaluation of inflammatory disorders, tissue injury, and infections.

VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 7:

For in vitro diagnostic use only.

VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 7 is used to calibrate VITROS 250/350/5,1 FS and 4600 Chemistry Systems and the VITROS 5600 Integrated System for the quantitative measurement of CRP.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
