Background |
The NGAL Test is a particle-enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay for the quantitative determination of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in human urine, EDTA plasma or heparin plasma on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. The NGAL Test Calibrator Kit contains calibrator solutions for establishing the calibration curve. NGAL measurements are useful in the diagnosis of acute kidney injury which may lead to acute renal failure. |
