light passes through a

liquid

• Must also pass through

interfering substances

Reflectance Spectrophotometry: MicroSlide

• Reflected light to measure

amount of reaction product

• Interfering substances are much

less likely to affect test results

Direct vs Indirect ISE’s

• All ISE’s measure the activity of an ion

• Direct ISE’s do not dilute the sample prior to analysis

• Indirect ISE’s dilute the sample prior to analysis

The difference between direct and indirect ISE’s

is the impact of sample dilution on ion activity

Page 43: VITROS® Solutions

© Ortho Clinical Diagnostics 2017

Electrolyte Exclusion Effect

Indirect ISE compensate for the presence of solids (proteins/lipids) in a sample

• Assumption: all samples contain 7% solids

• If a sample contains > or < than 7% solids, the result calculated for

an indirect ISE method will be inaccurate

• This inaccuracy is particularly important for sodium, which has a very

narrow normal range (140 mmol/L +/- 5 mmol/L)

Source: Sulaiman et al. Clinica Chimica Acta (2011); 412: 1-6.

Page 44: VITROS® Solutions

© Ortho Clinical Diagnostics 2017

• At LOW TP levels:

the VITROS SODIUM will be LOWER THAN INDIRECT methods.

e.g. at TP of 4 g/dL (40 g/L) VITROS Na will be

LOWER by approximately 3-5 mmol/L

NOTE: The VITROS result is considered

the MORE PHYSIOLOGICALLY CORRECT RESULT.

• At NORMAL TP levels:

the VITROS SODIUM should AGREE with Indirect methods.

• At HIGH TP levels :

the VITROS SODIUM will be HIGHER THAN INDIRECT methods.

e.g. at TP of 10 g/dL (100 g/L) VITROS Na will be

HIGHER by approximately 3-5 mmol/L

NOTE: The VITROS result is considered

the MORE PHYSIOLOGICALLY CORRECT RESULT.

UDA/ MPA Definitions

UDA= User Defined Assay

An assay that is run on an open channel using reagents supplied by a third party (in some

cases, reagents can also be supplied by Ortho).

The validation of the assay is the customer’s responsibility.

Ortho can suggest these solutions to customers in response to tenders, but not as a validated

solution.

MPA = Micro Tip Partnership Assay (*)

An assay that is run on an open channel using reagents validated by a third party in

collaboration with Ortho for use on the VITROS® 5,1 FS, 4600 and 5600 Integrated System

with the User Defined Assay (UDA) software using MicroTip Technology.

The reagents can be supplied by Ortho for markets where this has been agreed with the third

party.

Hemoglobin A molecules consist of two alpha- and two beta-globin polypeptide chains plus iron-containing heme groups

Alpha- & Beta-globin StripAssays:

Mutations in globin genes may lead to:• structurally abnormal hemoglobins with altered oxygen-binding and

stability properties (e.g. HbS: "sickle cell anemia")• synthesis disfunctions ("thalassemias") generating hemoglobin molecules

of altered polypeptide chain composition (e.g. HbH: 4 beta-globin chains)

Page 97: VITROS® Solutions

Alpha- and beta-globin mutations are among the most common inherited disorders along the so-called "thalassemia belt"

alpha-globin mutations: mainly large deletions of global prevalencebeta-globin mutations: mainly point-mutations and highly population-specific

Alpha- & Beta-globin StripAssays:

Page 98: VITROS® Solutions

Diagnosis of thalassemias and hemoglobin variants usually involves the analysis of hematological parameters and globin genotyping

Alpha- & Beta-globin StripAssays:

Genotyping alone is also used for:• carrier screening• prenatal diagnosis (PND) and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)

• beta-thalassemia phenotypes are variable, ranging from the severe transfusion-dependent thalassemia (thal) major to the mild form of thalassemia (thal) intermedia

• thal major patients have severe anemia and usually require medical attention within the first two years of life; without treatment, affected children have severely compromised growth and development and shortened life expectancy

• thal intermedia patients present later in life, have milder anemiaand never or only rarely require blood transfusion; occasionally thal intermedia patients are completely asymptomatic until adult life with only mild anemia

Page 134: VITROS® Solutions

… An often little addressed but important issue in external quality assurance schemes is a low percentage of tumor cells in the test samples, where the analytical sensitivity of most tests becomes critical …

Tumor cells with somatic mutationin a wildtype cell context

Page 135: VITROS® Solutions

… although traditional Sanger sequencing detects all clinically important KRAS mutations, its sensitivity is too low to be used in routine clinical tests (mutant alleles must be present in at least 30-40% of cells for reproducible detection) …

… if a mutation is identified, the affected codon and the specific change should be reported. This is an important aspect of the report because recommendations for treatment eligibility are continuously evolving …

... One can imagine that a perfect approach would be the combination of manual microdissection (under the microscope) with high-sensitivity (1% mutation in a 99% wild-type background limit of detection)methods for KRAS mutation testing.

o Quality of neutral-buffered formalin solution:formalin degradation products impair nucleic acid quality

o Fix tissue as quickly as possible after surgical removal

o Fixation time between 14-24 hours:penetration approx. 1 mm / hour

o To improve DNA quality avoid tissue staining:high pH and heavy metal ions may affect DNA integrity

o Use 5-10 µm thick sections for DNA extraction:discard the first 2-3 sections if the surface was exposed to air

Mutation detection in DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue

Page 142: VITROS® Solutions

For DNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue either qPCR or fluorometry (e.g. Invitrogen Qubit or Promega QuantiFluor system) need to be applied. FFPE DNA concentration is up to 100-fold overestimated if determined by OD 260 nm.

Results of five representative FFPE DNA samples measured at ViennaLab by using UV-VIS 260/280, qPCR, Qubit HS ("high sensitivity") and BR ("broad range").

A liquid biopsy, also known as fluid biopsy or fluid phase biopsy, is the sampling and analysis of non-solid biological tissue, primarily blood. (Wikipedia)

A liquid biopsy is a test done on a sample of blood to look for cancer cells from a tumor that are circulating in the blood or for pieces of DNA from tumor cells that are in the blood. (NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms)

Liquid biopsies

Sources for liquid biopsy samples: primarily blood, but also saliva, urine and other body fluids.

Liquid biopsies

Technical Problems associated with liquid biopsy assays:• low concentrations, short half life (~2 hours) and heavy

fragmentation of cfDNA and ctDNA• contaminating leukocyte DNA• availability of sufficient amounts of well-characterized

samples for test development
