Product
Elecsys Vitamin D total II, Vitamin D Test System, Material number 07028148190 Product Usage: This assay is intended for the quantitative determination of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D in human serum and plasma. This assay is to be used as an aid in the assessment of vitamin D sufficiency in adults. The electrochemiluminescence binding assay is intended for use on the immunoassay analyzer.

The device may give a falsely elevated result that is non-reproducible. If vitamin D level is monitored by laboratory tests and adapted based on the result, a dosage reduction of vitamin D supplementation cannot be excluded, and as a consequence, vitamin D deficiency may develop over time.
