[Assay of digoxin on dry-reagent strips]. 1987

H Coquelin, and Y Boucaud-Maître, and M Manchon, and S Thoinet, and P Hutinel

An automated immunoassay for Digoxin in serum using dry-reagent strips (Stratus Dade) was evaluated, and compared with two others immunoassays (TDX Abbott and ACA Du Pont). Precision, sensitivity and specificity were satisfying, as well as correlation study, but discrepancies observed for some sera proved that these techniques still pose serious problems of specificity or of standardisation.

D011934 Reagent Strips Narrow pieces of material impregnated or covered with a substance used to produce a chemical reaction. The strips are used in detecting, measuring, producing, etc., other substances. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Reagent Strip,Strip, Reagent,Strips, Reagent
D004077 Digoxin A cardiotonic glycoside obtained mainly from Digitalis lanata; it consists of three sugars and the aglycone DIGOXIGENIN. Digoxin has positive inotropic and negative chronotropic activity. It is used to control ventricular rate in ATRIAL FIBRILLATION and in the management of congestive heart failure with atrial fibrillation. Its use in congestive heart failure and sinus rhythm is less certain. The margin between toxic and therapeutic doses is small.
