Product Description
The Biorex Diagnostics Citrate Assay is a ready-to-use reagent system for the quantitative determination of citrate in human urine, providing essential insight into renal function and metabolic balance. Citrate is an important urinary metabolite that helps inhibit the formation of calcium-based kidney stones by binding to calcium and reducing crystal aggregation. Measurement of urinary citrate is widely used in the assessment of nephrolithiasis risk, evaluation of metabolic disorders, and monitoring of renal tubular function. Low citrate levels (hypocitraturia) are commonly associated with an increased risk of kidney stone formation, making this assay a valuable tool in clinical diagnostics and patient management.
Key Features
- Quantitative measurement of citrate in urine
- Clinically relevant for nephrolithiasis assessment, metabolic evaluation, and renal health monitoring
- Highly sensitive enzymatic colourimetric method ensures accuracy and reproducibility
- Ready-to-use reagents simplify workflow and reduce preparation errors
- Compatible with automated analysers and manual spectrophotometric methods
Benefits
The Biorex Assay delivers precise, reliable, and reproducible results, supporting diagnosis, monitoring, and research applications related to kidney stone disease and metabolic health. Its analytical methodology enables accurate detection of urinary citrate levels, assisting clinicians in identifying patients at risk of stone formation and evaluating treatment effectiveness. By providing consistent and dependable measurements, the assay supports effective clinical decision-making and long-term patient management.
This assay is particularly valuable in hospital laboratories, nephrology departments, metabolic clinics, and research institutions focused on renal disorders and stone disease. Its ready-to-use format streamlines workflow, reduces pre-analytical variability, and ensures consistent performance across different laboratory environments. Compatibility with automated analysers allows seamless integration into routine testing platforms, supporting efficient, high-throughput analysis while maintaining accuracy and reliability.
In addition to clinical diagnostics, the Biorex Citrate Assay supports research into urinary metabolism, renal physiology, and kidney stone pathogenesis, making it an essential tool for advancing understanding of metabolic risk factors and improving patient outcomes.
