Indications for Use
An enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative in vitro diagnostic measurement of active free 17-hydroxyprogesterone in saliva. Measurements of 17-hydroxyprogesterone are used as an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders of the adrenal glands or the ovaries, and as an aid in the diagnosis of late onset of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common cause of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia. This test is not intended for newborn screening.
Device Story
Salivary 17α-OHP Elisa is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for quantitative measurement of free 17-hydroxyprogesterone in human saliva. Device uses competitive binding principle: endogenous 17-OHP in patient sample competes with 17-OHP-horseradish peroxidase conjugate for binding to rabbit anti-17α-OHP antibody coated on microtiter plate wells. After incubation and washing, bound peroxidase conjugate is measured via microtiter plate reader; signal intensity is inversely proportional to 17-OHP concentration. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output provides quantitative 17-OHP levels to assist clinicians in diagnosing and monitoring adrenal/ovarian disorders and Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia. Requires avoidance of oral contamination (blood, food, gum) and specific collection methods (no cotton swabs).
Clinical Evidence
No clinical trials; performance established via analytical bench testing. Method comparison study (n=76) against LC-MS/MS reference method showed correlation (r=0.982, y=1.004x + 3.609). Precision studies (intra-assay, inter-assay, inter-lot) performed with CVs generally <15%. Linearity validated across 3.6–1000 pg/mL range. Reference ranges established for children (6-12 yrs), adult men, and women (follicular/luteal phases).
Technological Characteristics
Solid-phase competitive ELISA. Components: 96-well microtiter plate coated with rabbit anti-17α-OHP antibody, enzyme conjugate (17-OHP-HRP), standards (0-1000 pg/mL), controls, substrate, and stop solution. Requires microtiter plate reader. Traceable to purified 17-OHP. Stability: 16 months at 2-8°C (closed), 6 weeks at 4°C (open).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of adrenal gland or ovary disorders, including late-onset 21-hydroxylase deficiency (Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia). Not for newborn screening. Prescription use only.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A 17-hydroxyprogesterone test system is a device intended to measure 17-hydroxyprogesterone (a steroid) in plasma and serum. Measurements of 17-hydroxyprogesterone are used in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders of the adrenal glands or the ovaries.
