Test presentation
Electrophoresis of the Alkaline Phosphatase isoenzymes is a well-established technique routinely used in clinical laboratories for screening samples for various diseases (e.g. bone and liver metastasis, ovarian tumors, etc).
On the HYDRASYS instruments, utilizing the HYDRAGEL ISO-PAL gels, serum alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes are separated (bone, liver, placental and intestinal fractions).
The semi-automated HYDRASYS instrument offers sample application, electrophoretic migration and detection.
The visualization of the gel provides qualitative analysis, while the reading of the agarose gels on a Sebia reader provides alkaline phosphatase profiles for relative quantitative analysis.
On the HYDRASYS 2 SCAN, the scanning system is embedded in the instrument.
