The GOD-POD method is an established enzymatic colorimetric approach for quantitative glucose determination.
In this method, glucose is enzymatically oxidised through a glucose oxidase-based reaction. The resulting reaction products participate in a peroxidase-mediated colour reaction, and the measured colour intensity is related to the amount of glucose present in the specimen.
The exact analyser parameters, wavelength, calibration settings, sample requirements and application protocol should always be taken from the current Erba Instructions for Use and analyser application supplied for the actual reagent lot.
Erba SYSPACK™ reagents are dedicated reagent packs developed for use with the manufacturer's XL clinical chemistry analyser range.
Erba describes its SYSPACK reagent portfolio as:
| Component | Configuration |
|---|---|
| Glucose Reagent R1 | 10 × 44 ml |
| R2 | Not required in manufacturer-listed GLU 440 configuration |
| Total Reagent Volume | 440 ml |
| Erba Analyser Platform | Manufacturer-Listed Tests / Kit |
|---|---|
| XL-180 | Approximately 2,000 tests |
| XL-200 | Approximately 2,000 tests |
| XL-640 | Approximately 2,000 tests |
| XL-1000 | Approximately 2,000 tests |
Actual test yield may vary depending on analyser dead volume, calibration frequency, quality-control runs, repeat testing and laboratory workflow.
The GLU 440 SYSPACK reagent is intended for compatible instruments within the Erba XL Clinical Chemistry Analyser family.
Manufacturer documentation lists the system reagent for platforms including:
Always confirm compatibility with the exact analyser model, software version and current Erba reagent application before use.
Glucose measurement is one of the most frequently performed tests in clinical chemistry and is commonly used as part of laboratory evaluation relating to glucose metabolism and glycaemic status.
Laboratory glucose testing may be included in:
A glucose result should always be interpreted according to specimen type, collection conditions, clinical history and applicable laboratory and medical guidelines.
Glucose is frequently assessed together with other biochemical parameters depending on the patient's clinical requirements.
