# Title: Chloride Reagent Kit 2 × 50 ml | Biochemistry Reagent for Laboratory Use ## Description: Swemed Chloride Reagent Kit 2 × 50 ml The Swemed Chloride Reagent Kit 2 × 50 ml is a professional clinical biochemistry reagent designed for the photometric quantitative determination of chloride in serum and heparin plasma using the Mercuric Thiocyanate method. In this method, chloride displaces thiocyanate from mercuric thiocyanate. The released thiocyanate reacts with ferric ions to form a coloured complex, and the colour intensity is proportional to the amount of chloride present in the specimen. Chloride is an important electrolyte involved in maintaining extracellular osmotic pressure, fluid balance and acid-base balance. Its measurement is commonly included in electrolyte and clinical chemistry investigations alongside sodium, potassium, renal-function parameters and other related biochemical tests. The Swemed kit contains ready-to-use reagent and standard, making it suitable for routine professional laboratory workflows in pathology laboratories, diagnostic centres, hospitals and clinical biochemistry facilities.

Key Features Swemed Diagnostics Chloride Reagent Kit Pack size: 2 × 50 ml Includes 1 × 3 ml Chloride Standard Uses the Mercuric Thiocyanate method Designed for photometric chloride determination Suitable for serum and heparin plasma Ready-to-use reagent and standard Endpoint measurement Manufacturer quick-reference wavelength: 505 nm Standard concentration: 100 mEq/L Linearity up to 140 mEq/L Suitable for routine professional clinical chemistry testing For in vitro diagnostic use only Key Benefits Ready-to-Use Reagent System The Chloride Reagent and Chloride Standard are supplied ready for use, reducing reagent-preparation steps during routine laboratory testing. Defined Photometric Method The kit uses the established Mercuric Thiocyanate colorimetric principle, allowing chloride concentration to be determined from the intensity of the coloured ferric thiocyanate complex formed during the reaction. Convenient Laboratory Pack The 2 × 50 ml reagent configuration with a separate standard is practical for laboratories handling routine electrolyte and clinical chemistry workloads. Useful for Routine Electrolyte Assessment Chloride testing forms an important part of laboratory evaluation of electrolyte balance, fluid status, renal-related investigations and acid-base balance. Suitable for Professional Laboratory Workflows The reagent is intended for trained personnel operating within quality-controlled clinical laboratories. Intended Use The Swemed Chloride Reagent Kit is intended for the photometric quantitative determination of chloride in serum and plasma, with the manufacturer specifically listing serum and heparin plasma as suitable specimens. The product is intended for professional in vitro diagnostic use only. Test Principle Chloride in the specimen displaces thiocyanate from mercuric thiocyanate. The liberated thiocyanate then reacts with ferric ions to form a red ferric thiocyanate complex. The intensity of the colour formed is directly proportional to the chloride concentration present in the specimen.

Laboratories should always follow their validated analyser procedure and the current Swemed product insert. Specimen Requirements The manufacturer lists: Serum Heparin plasma The insert also notes that specimens should be free from haemolysis and separated from cells as rapidly as possible. EDTA and oxalate anticoagulants are not acceptable, because they may interfere with the assay. Specimen Stability According to the Swemed insert, chloride in the sample is stated to remain stable for approximately one week at: Room temperature: 15–25°C Refrigerated: 2–8°C Frozen: −20°C Laboratories should always follow their validated specimen-handling policy and current manufacturer documentation. Measuring Range and Linearity The manufacturer states a linearity limit of 140 mEq/L. When a result exceeds this linearity limit, the manufacturer procedure describes dilution of the sample 1:2 with distilled water, followed by multiplication of the obtained result by 2. Interferences The Swemed product insert identifies haemolysis and anticoagulants other than heparin as potential interference considerations. The manufacturer also reports that, under its evaluated conditions, bilirubin up to 120 mg/L, bovine serum albumin up to 150 g/L, and triglycerides up to 6 g/L did not significantly alter the assay. Manufacturer Reference Range The Swemed insert provides the following reference interval: Specimen Reference Range Serum / Plasma 92–108 mEq/L Each laboratory should verify whether the manufacturer's reference interval is appropriate for its own patient population and establish its own validated reference interval when required. Storage and Stability The manufacturer states that kit components remain stable until the labelled expiry date when: Stored tightly closed Kept at room temperature Protected from light Protected from contamination Not frozen Reagents should not be used beyond the stated expiry date. Important Laboratory Handling Tips Use clean, disposable pipette tips for reagent dispensing. Prevent contamination of the reagent and standard. Avoid contact with metal materials during the assay. Ensure reusable laboratory glassware is thoroughly cleaned and rinsed. Be aware that residual detergents or water-softening agents may interfere with the procedure. Use appropriate calibrated equipment. Follow current Good Laboratory Practice. Perform appropriate calibration and internal quality control before reporting patient results. Safety and Precautions The Chloride Reagent contains mercury compounds, including mercuric thiocyanate. The manufacturer warns that mercury(II) thiocyanate is harmful by inhalation, skin contact and ingestion. Laboratory personnel should use suitable gloves and eye/face protection, avoid direct contact and follow appropriate laboratory chemical-handling procedures. This product is intended for handling by trained laboratory personnel. Why Chloride Testing Is Important Chloride is a major extracellular electrolyte and contributes to: Osmotic pressure regulation Body fluid balance Acid-base balance Electrolyte homeostasis Chloride measurement may therefore be included in laboratory evaluation related to: Electrolyte imbalance Dehydration Renal disorders Acid-base disturbances Prolonged fluid loss Metabolic abnormalities Routine clinical chemistry profiles The manufacturer notes that altered chloride concentrations can occur in several clinical situations, but individual test results should always be interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals together with other investigations and clinical findings.
