SPOTLIGHT: Lactoferrin CLIA Kit
March 12, 2025

SPOTLIGHT: Lactoferrin CLIA Kit

Lactoferrin is a key member of the transferrin family of proteins that protects against microbial infection, regulates iron absorption, and modulates immune function in a wide range of tissues. The Lactoferrin CLIA Kit is a chemiluminescence immunoassay for the quantitative determination of lactoferrin in human stool samples using the KleeYa automated platform.

 Features and Benefits

ACCURACY

Demonstrated analytical accuracy and sensitivity for confidence in reporting of fecal lactoferrin values.

  • Recovery of 93 - 102% and linearity of 98 - 111% across the Analytical Measuring Range (AMR)
  • Sensitive detection limit (LOD) of 0.4 μg/g and an AMR of 2 - 150 μg/g

TURN-AROUND TIME

Efficient, cost-effective testing of both low and high sample volumes with random access automation.

  • Test more frequently and reduce wait times with only 6 non-reportables per day
  • Easily accommodate growing sample volumes at 60 tests per hour

RELIABILITY

Strong reproducibility and lot-to-lot consistency for accurate reporting over time.

  • Intra-day and inter-day precision of ≤ 10%
  • Well-characterized sample panel spanning the AMR for lot-release testing

EFFICIENCY & PROFITABILITY

Test a growing range of stool-based biomarkers on an automated chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) platform.

  • Universal stool extraction device reduces preanalytical processing
  • Reduce cost and increase revenue with in-house lactoferrin testing

Simplified Sample Processing

Test Lactoferrin (FDA-registered), Pancreatic Elastase (FDA-registered), Calprotectin (pending FDA clearance), and a growing range of GI biomarkers from a single sample with a user-friendly extraction device on the KleeYa platform.
