Popis: Seraclear-HE, containing seven enzyme analytes from human sources, was evaluated as an intermethod calibrator for aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) to transfer Reference Method values to seven routine methods, including one based on hydrogen peroxide detection for possible unification of values (interlaboratory comparability of data). The commutabilities of AST from erythrocytes and ALT from a hepatoma cell line were studied between the consensus methods of Japan Society of Clinical Chemistry (chosen as the Reference Methods) and each of the automated routine methods at reaction temperatures of 30 degrees C and 37 degrees C. For AST, calibration of patients' sera with Seraclear-HE decreased average intermethod variation (CV) from 12% to 2%; for ALT, the decrease was from 20% to 3%. For both enzymes, Seraclear-HE was judged to be commutable between the Reference Methods and each of the methods investigated. The limitations for such use are discussed.
