Fully automated testing
for qualitative analysis with fast separation and good resolution with dedicated reagent and program on CAPILLARYS.
About Urine Protein by Capillary Electrophoresis
Urine Protein Electrophoresis is a well-established technique routinely used in clinical laboratories to detect and estimate the concentration of monoclonal components as Bence Jones proteins (Monoclonal Free Light Chains) or other proteinuria disorders.
Key benefits
Urine Protein by Capillary Electrophoresis : Automated test for screening and quantification.
Direct visualisation of urine protein profile
for quick screening and identification of abnormal urinary pattern.
Separation into major protein fraction
CAPI 3 PROTEIN(E) 6 kit enables the separation into five major zones: Albumin, Alpha-1, Alpha-2, Beta, Gamma.
Ability to quantify abnormal peaks in two modes
Valley to valley or Baseline to top.
Main characteristics
Test principle
Urine Proteins are separated in silica capillaries by their electrophoretic mobility and the electroosmotic flow at high voltage in an alkaline buffer. Proteins are directly detected during migration by UV absorbance and quantified by a peak.
