-Manufacturing/Marketing License No, 21700AMZ00594000
Class Il blod test series Factor Auto Series
For measurement of plasma fibrin degradation product (D-dimer)
Factor Auto D-dimer
Dedimers desribed here refer to fibrin degradation produets
(XDPs) in general produced when fibrin produced accompanying
sctvation of blood coagulation mechanism in blood vessels is
‘decomposed by plasmin produced subsequently in blond vessels by
activation of the fibrinolysis system, i, early degradation product
(Stage 1 XDP: no!y containing P-X-D/V-Y. ete). middle
degradation product (Stage 2 XDP: mainly containing Y-DD-Y, ete)

DDm,
Presence of fibrivfibrinogen degradation products (FDPs) in
blood vessels mean occurence of fibrinolysis in the body and the
measurement ofthese biomarkers is useful as an indicator for
diagnosis, teatment and course observation of disseminated
intravascular coagulation (DIC) and various thromnotic diseases.
‘Ofthom, D-dimer isa spositic product appearing only inthe
secondary fibrinolysis (fibrin degradation: it enables the
liserimination to some extent whether the fibrinolytic phenomenon
‘occurring inthe blood vessel derives from primary Hibrinolsis
(degradation of fibrinogen) or secondary fibrinolysis by measuring
‘the total FDP in serum and D-dimer in plasma simultaneously and
comparing them,
Feature)
‘his product is the reagent ki Tor measuremen’OF D-imers that
can detect Stage 1 XDP, Stage 2 XDP, and Stage 3 XDP with almost
‘equal affinities and, therefore its possible to obtain the strength of
secondary fibrinolysis inthe blood vessel more accurately: Refer to
References 2) and 3).

[Purposes of use)
“Measurement of plasma fibrin degradation product (D-dimer)
Ta is a Sol TTT
[Measurement principle}
This product quantitatively determines D-dimers in plasma
according tothe latex turbidimetric immunoassay. When a
specimen is allowed to react with latex particles sensitized with
‘mouse anti-human D-dimer monoclonal antibody, Dimer inthe
specimen reacts with the latex particles, which aggregate
‘eansequentl in proportion to the D-dimer concentration inthe
specimen, The intensity of ageregation is measured between 500 and
‘800 nm and the D-dimer concentration in the specimen is
{determined from the calibration curve prepared witha calibrator
solution by a similar reaction.
[Precautions during operation]
1. Proeautons eonceming a specimen
(2) Use plasma asa measure
ple :
(2) A specimen is stable for 8 hours at temperature between
15 and 28°C and for 2 months at 20°C
(6) Handle the specimen as a material witha risk of infections
by viruses, tc. and autoclave the specimen and apparatuses
wed in the test at 121°C for I our a disinfect them by
‘immersing in 1% sodium hypochlorite solution, ete
Inetivate the waste solution by neutralization and mixing
‘with sodium hypochlorite to give 1% concentration and
leaving for 30 minutes
2 Interfering substances
“Measurement isnot affected by the following substances a
up othe following eoncentations; bilirubin at 20 mid,
hemoglobin a 460 mgd, chyle at 2400 formazin
turbidity units, rheumatic Faetor at $00 TLL, and heparin
at $0 units.
[Dosage and administration (operating procedure)
1. Preparation of reagents
i: Use the buffer as itis
RD: Use the latex reagent as itis
Diluent: Use the special Diluent (sold separately).
Calibrator solution: Use D-dimer Calibrator (sold
separately),
2, Operating procedure (measurement with TOSHIBA Aceute
TBA-4OFR)
(1) Measure 140 iL oF RI
(2) Add 4 ji. Gach ofthe calibrator sok
concentrations prepared by successive doubling dilution of
the stock solution of D-dimer Calibrator with Diluent and
at O concentration (Diluent), or a specimen with light
shaking.
(3) Incubate for 110 S minutes at 37°C.
(4) Add 40 lof R.
(5) Measure the change per minute in absorbance at 48 nm
from 29.7 0173.2 spoons afer edition oF 2,
(6) Prepare calibration curve using the changes in
absorbance of the reagent blank (Diluent) and Calibrator
solutions obianed similarly as forthe specimen and
determine the D-dimer concentration i the specimen from
fons at SFactor Auto D-dimer
the change in the absorbance of the specimen
The parameters used inthe operating procedures with ther
analytical instruments are also avaiable, Please make an inquiry to
cour office
[Judgment ofthe measurement est]
Reference normal range: Not moee than 1.0 p/n?
“The normal range may vary depending on the measurement
‘conditions and the standard used. Set the range upon consultation
‘with a physician at each institution.

[Precautions concerning use or handling]
1 The measured value of D-dimer may nt beso igh when primary
TibrinolysisWenkanced. If such situation is expected, the
fibrinolysis eonition of a patient shoul be judged by comparing
with the measured value of total FDP if possible
2. The massed value of Dsdimer may deviate from that ofan
exiting product ia plasma for measurement of D-dimer i
stored under poor eontions. Measure the plasma obtained by
centrifugation within the day of preparation. Or, store it under
freezing at -20°C or below and complete the measurement within
the day of preparation ater thawing at 37°C for 10 minutes. Do
~ not se the plasma repeatedly frozen and thawed.
3. Store the reagents 2 t0 8°C. Do not use frozen reagents or
‘reagents beyond the expiration date
4. Shake the latex reagent well before use with paying an
attention to avoid bubbling,
‘5. Do not use the reagents by combining those of different ls. "Do
not use the reagents by adding a product of different lo
6. Always use purified water forthe measurement system, Do not
use tap wate,
