91671-8
LaboratoryTransferrin.carbohydrate deficient.disialo/Transferrin.total standardized per IFCC-RMP for CDT in Serum or Plasma
Definition
The percent fraction of disialotransferrin to total transferrin standardized per the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) HPLC reference measurement procedure (RMP) for carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) in serum specimens. The upper reference limit for the IFCC-RMP for CDT is 1.7% and <2.0% cut-off value is proposed for forensic use.[PMID: 28025028]
