Product Description
The Biorex Diagnostics AST Assay is an in vitro diagnostic test designed for the quantitative determination of aspartate aminotransferase in human serum or plasma. Also known as glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT), AST is a key transaminase enzyme involved in amino acid metabolism and the Krebs cycle, playing an essential role in cellular energy production. Measurement of AST activity provides valuable insights into liver function, cardiac health, and skeletal muscle integrity, supporting accurate clinical evaluation and diagnosis.
AST measurement is widely used in clinical diagnostics to detect and monitor conditions such as liver disease, myocardial infarction, and muscle disorders. Elevated enzyme activity can indicate hepatocellular damage, cardiac injury, or skeletal muscle breakdown. When interpreted alongside other biochemical markers, particularly alanine aminotransferase results contribute to differential diagnosis and provide a clearer understanding of tissue injury and disease progression.
Key Features
• Precise measurement of activity in serum and plasma
• Supports evaluation of liver disease, myocardial infarction, and muscle disorders
• Enzymatic method compatible with automated analysers (Hitachi, Olympus, Furuno/Daytona)
• Reliable and reproducible performance across multiple laboratory platforms
• AST/ALT ratio analysis aids differential diagnosis of liver disorders
Benefits
The Biorex AST Assay provides accurate, reproducible, and clinically meaningful results for assessing tissue damage and organ-specific conditions. Its robust performance ensures consistency across laboratory settings, while compatibility with automated analysers enhances efficiency and throughput.
Routine use of this assay supports liver function testing, cardiac evaluation, and monitoring of muscle pathology. It is also valuable in clinical research investigating metabolic and enzymatic processes. By delivering timely and dependable data, the Biorex Assay enables healthcare professionals to make informed clinical decisions, optimise patient management, and improve diagnostic outcomes. Its precision, reliability, and versatility make it an essential tool for modern clinical laboratories and diagnostic environments.
