# Title: LDH Reagent Kit 25 ml – Modified IFCC / Optimized DGKC Kinetic Method ## Description: Swemed LDH Reagent Kit 25 ml The Swemed LDH Reagent Kit 25 ml is a professional clinical biochemistry reagent intended for quantitative determination of Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in serum using a kinetic UV method. Swemed’s current catalogue describes LDH under its cardiac reagent range as an Optimized DGKC method based on the pyruvate-to-lactate reaction, with liquid-stable ready-to-use reagents, high working-reagent stability and a convenient 25 ml pack size. The current Swemed LDH product literature labels the assay as a Modified IFCC Method. Both describe the same pyruvate-to-lactate kinetic LDH principle. The test measures the rate at which NADH is oxidized to NAD+ during the LDH-catalysed conversion of pyruvate to lactate. The resulting decrease in absorbance is proportional to the LDH activity present in the specimen. This product is intended for professional in vitro diagnostic use only in pathology laboratories, hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres and clinical chemistry facilities.

Key Features Swemed Diagnostics LDH Reagent Kit Convenient 25 ml pack size Modified IFCC / Optimized DGKC kinetic method Pyruvate-to-lactate reaction UV kinetic measurement at 340 nm Suitable for serum and heparin plasma Reaction performed at 37°C Ready-to-use R1 and R2 components Working reagent prepared at 4 parts R1 + 1 part R2 Working reagent stability stated as 1 week at 2–8°C in the product insert Suitable for routine clinical chemistry testing For professional in vitro diagnostic use only Key Benefits Kinetic UV Measurement The Swemed LDH assay uses a kinetic UV method in which the decrease in NADH absorbance at 340 nm is measured over time, providing a direct rate-based estimate of LDH enzyme activity. Defined Two-Reagent System The kit uses R1 and R2, which can be combined in a 4:1 ratio to form the working reagent. The manufacturer also permits direct use of 0.8 ml R1 + 0.2 ml R2 during the assay. Convenient 25 ml Pack Swemed specifically lists a 25 ml LDH pack for laboratories with routine or moderate LDH workloads. Its latest catalogue highlights this pack as a convenient size. Suitable for Routine Clinical Chemistry LDH measurement is used in a variety of laboratory investigations involving tissue injury and enzyme activity assessment. Specialist Laboratory Use The reagent is designed for trained laboratory personnel following validated analyser settings, internal quality control and current manufacturer instructions. Intended Use The Swemed LDH Reagent Kit 25 ml is intended for quantitative determination of Lactate Dehydrogenase activity in serum and compatible heparin plasma. The product insert specifically identifies: Serum Heparin plasma It also states that EDTA and sodium citrate should not be used because they may inhibit the assay. Test Principle LDH catalyses the reduction of pyruvate to lactate while NADH is oxidized to NAD+: Pyruvate + NADH + H+ → Lactate + NAD+ The rate of decrease in absorbance caused by NADH oxidation is directly proportional to the amount of LDH activity present in the sample. Reagent Preparation Swemed instructs laboratories to prepare the working reagent by mixing: 4 parts Reagent R1 + 1 part Reagent R2 The manufacturer states that the prepared working reagent remains stable for 1 week at 2–8°C. An alternative direct assay setup is: R1: 0.8 ml R2: 0.2 ml The combined reagent should have an absorbance above 1.0 against distilled water at 340 nm. If the absorbance is below this level, the reagent should be discarded. Reagent Composition Component Composition Reagent 1 Tris buffer pH 7.0 – 6 g/L Reagent 1 EDTA – 1.5 g/L Reagent 1 Sodium Pyruvate – 0.2 g/L Reagent 1 L-Alanine – 44.5 g/L Reagent 2 KH₂PO₄ – 0.9 g/L Reagent 2 K₂HPO₄ – 0.8 g/L The reagents also contain sodium azide as a preservative according to the manufacturer insert.

Manual Assay Procedure Component Macro Method Semi-Micro Method Reagent R1 + R2 800 + 200 µl 400 + 100 µl Sample 25 µl 12.5 µl Mix well and measure the initial absorbance after 1 minute, then repeat readings at approximately 1-minute intervals for 3 minutes. Calculate the mean absorbance change per minute. Calculation LDH (U/L) = ΔA/min × 8199 Specimen Requirements Swemed recommends: Non-haemolysed serum Heparin plasma Important manufacturer precautions include: Do not use haemolysed samples, because red blood cells contain high concentrations of LDH. Do not use EDTA or sodium citrate plasma, because they may inhibit the assay. Avoid lipemic samples where possible. Specimen Stability The Swemed literature states: Specimen Stability Serum Approximately 1–3 days at 2–8°C The manufacturer also notes that freezing can inactivate liver LDH isoenzymes, so specimen handling should follow the laboratory’s validated procedure. Measuring Range and Linearity The official LDH insert states that the method is linear up to 1000 U/L. For samples exceeding this level, Swemed recommends dilution 1 + 5 with physiological saline, repeating the assay and multiplying the result by 6. Swemed’s newer catalogue describes an updated LDH offering with high linearity up to 1200 IU/L and working-reagent stability up to 30 days. Because assay configuration may vary by production version, the current kit label and current package insert supplied with the 25 ml pack should be treated as the controlling specification. Manufacturer Reference Range Specimen Manufacturer Reference Serum 230–460 U/L Swemed recommends that each laboratory establish or verify its own reference interval for its patient population. Why LDH Testing Is Performed Lactate Dehydrogenase is present in many tissues, including: Liver Heart Skeletal muscle Kidney Red blood cells LDH may become elevated in several conditions involving tissue damage or cell turnover. The manufacturer literature mentions associations with myocardial injury, pulmonary disease, hepatic disease, haemolytic anaemia, renal disease and muscular dystrophy. LDH testing may therefore form part of laboratory evaluation related to: Tissue injury Liver-related investigations Muscle injury Haemolysis-related assessment Renal disease Selected cardiac investigations General enzyme-profile testing LDH is not tissue-specific, so results should always be interpreted with other laboratory and clinical findings. LDH in a Clinical Chemistry Profile Related Test Laboratory Relevance LDH General tissue enzyme / tissue injury marker AST / SGOT Liver and muscle enzyme ALT / SGPT Liver-associated enzyme CK-NAC Muscle enzyme assessment CK-MB Cardiac-associated CK fraction Bilirubin Liver / haemolysis-related assessment Creatinine Renal profile Urea Renal profile Storage and Stability Store the LDH reagents: At 2–8°C Tightly closed Protected from light Protected from contamination Do not freeze The reagents should be brought to the required working temperature before testing and should not be used beyond the labelled expiry date. Safety and Handling The manufacturer notes that the reagents contain sodium azide, which requires appropriate laboratory handling. Laboratory personnel should: Wear suitable gloves Use eye / face protection Avoid ingestion or inhalation Avoid direct skin and mucous-membrane contact Follow current Good Laboratory Practice Dispose of reagents according to institutional and applicable safety procedures Who Can Buy This Product? Buyer Type Typical Application Pathology Laboratories Routine LDH testing Diagnostic Centres Clinical chemistry enzyme testing Hospital Laboratories Inpatient and outpatient biochemical testing Cardiac Laboratories Selected enzyme-profile testing Liver / Gastroenterology Centres Hepatic enzyme assessment Clinical Chemistry Laboratories Routine LDH measurement Medical Institutions Diagnostic and teaching laboratories Healthcare Organisations Institutional procurement Laboratory Distributors Professional supply where permitted Useful Tips Before Ordering Confirm the required method is LDH Modified IFCC / DGKC kinetic.
