What is it indicated for?

The Optilite IgM Kit is intended for the quantitative in vitro measurement of IgM in human serum, lithium heparin or EDTA plasma using the Binding Site Optilite analyser. Measurement of IgM aids in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body’s lack of ability to resist infectious agents. The test results are to be used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings.

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