GPTSLR 25 SGPT(ALT)IFCC 1 x 25 ml
GPTSLR 125 SGPT(ALT)IFCC 5 x 25 ml
GPTSLR 200 SGPT(ALT)IFCC 4 x 50 ml

METHOD
 Kinetic UV test

PRINCIPLE
Glutamic-pyruvic Transaminase (GPT - ALT) catalyses the reaction between alpha - ketoglutaric acid and alanine giving L-glutamic acid and Pyruvic acid. Pyruvic acid, in the presence of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) reacts wit NADH giving lactic acid and NAD. The rate of NADH consumption is determined photometrically and is directly proportional to the GPT activity in the sample.

SAMPLE :
Serum or plasma.

REFERENCE VALUES
 0 to 40 U/l

The reference values are only indicative in nature. Every laboratory should establish its own normal ranges.

MANUAL PROCEDURE

PIPETTE INTO TEST TUBE
SAMPLE 100 µl
REAGENT 1000 µl

Mix well and let stand for 1 min. at 37°C. Measure absorbance decrease per minute during 3 minutes
(p A/min)

CALCULATION AND LINEARITY
p A/min. x 1746 = U/l ALT

The method is linear upto 440 U/l.
