Adaptation of the EMIT gentamicin and tobramycin procedure to the IL microcentrifugal analyzer. 1981

M Iosefsohn, and R L Boeckx, and J M Hicks

We have adapted the Syva Emit gentamicin and tobramycin procedure to the IL microcentrifugal analyzer, MCA III. With this instrument the recommended instructions for reagent preparation and reaction sequence did not produce a useable standard curve. We modified the dilutions and volumes for the working reagents and reversed the sequence of addition of the working reagents. WE assessed the linearity and precision of the analysis and compared the Syva gentamicin and tobramycin Emit procedure on the IL MCA III with the semiautomated procedure on a Gilford Stasar III spectrophotometer. With the IL MCA III only 3 to 5 microliter of serum is used, 17 analyses can be obtained in 8 min, and the reagent costs are reduced considerably.

D002498 Centrifugation Process of using a rotating machine to generate centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities, remove moisture, or simulate gravitational effects. It employs a large motor-driven apparatus with a long arm, at the end of which human and animal subjects, biological specimens, or equipment can be revolved and rotated at various speeds to study gravitational effects.
