VIDAS® Vitamin D
It is well known that Vitamin D deficiency during childhood can cause growth retardation and bone diseases. In adults it can precipitate or exacerbate osteopenia and osteoporosis and increase the risk of fracture. Vitamin D can also play a role in decreasing the risk of many chronic illnesses, including common cancers, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and cardiovascular diseases.
- Detection of both vitamin D2 and D3 for reliable results.
- Strong correlation with LC-MS/MS mass spectrometry.
- No pretreatment sample, all reagents included in the kit.
VIDAS® FERRITIN
Assessing ferritin, a key biomarker of iron metabolism, is important to control anemia and to help monitor treatment. VIDAS® FERRITIN provides accurate and competitive results using a range of precise, evidence-based measurements.
