Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What clinical condition is the Asserachrom HPIA Test Kit primarily used to diagnose or monitor?
The Asserachrom HPIA Test Kit is designed for the qualitative detection of antibodies against platelet factor 4 (PF4) in human plasma, which aids in diagnosing heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). HIT is a serious condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks platelets after exposure to heparin, a blood-thinning medication.
Is the Asserachrom HPIA Test Kit intended for single-use or can it be reused?
The kit is explicitly labeled as a single-use diagnostic reagent, meaning each test kit is intended for one use only. This ensures accuracy and prevents cross-contamination, which is critical for reliable in vitro diagnostic testing.
What storage conditions are required for the Asserachrom HPIA Test Kit?
The kit does not require special storage conditions beyond standard refrigeration. It should be stored at temperatures between 2–8°C to maintain its integrity and performance for laboratory use.
How is the regulatory status of the Asserachrom HPIA Test Kit defined?
The device holds both FDA 510(k) clearance (under reference number K003767) and compliance with the In Vitro Diagnostic Device Directive (IVDD). It is classified as a Class II medical device, indicating it has undergone rigorous review for safety and effectiveness in professional hematology laboratory settings.
