Automated Jendrassik-Grof method for measurement of bilirubin in serum with the Greiner Selective Analyzer (GSA II D), and comparison with the method involving diazotized 2,4-dichloroaniline. 1981

We automated the Jendrassik-Grof method for measurement of bilirubin with the Greiner Selective Analyzer GSA II D. Comparison with the manual Jendrassik-Grof method showed a highly significant correlation coefficient of 0.994 for total and 0.980 for "direct" bilirubin measurement. The automated method showed good precision and was linear to 667 mu mol/L, the highest concentration tested. Addition of hemolysate caused a greater effect on the measurement of direct bilirubin than on total bilirubin. The inhibitory effect on measurement of total bilirubin, though small, was statistically significant at hemoglobin concentrations greater than 2 g/L. Comparison with the method involving diazotized 2,4-dichloroaniline showed the Jendrassik-Grof method to be relatively less affected by hemolysis and turbidity in the measurement of total bilirubin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
