Indications for Use
The TG IgG kit is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for the qualitative detection and quantitation of antibodies against the Thyroglobulin (TG) antigen in serum as an aid in the diagnosis of thyroid autoimmune disease. The test can be performed either manually or in conjunction with the Mago Plus automated EIA processor.
Device Story
The Is-anti-TG IgG ELISA Kit is an in vitro diagnostic assay for detecting IgG antibodies against Thyroglobulin in human serum. The device uses microwells coated with TG antigen; patient serum, calibrators, and controls are added to form antigen-antibody complexes. After washing, a horseradish peroxidase-labeled anti-human IgG conjugate is added, followed by a substrate. The resulting color change is measured spectrophotometrically at 450 nm (reference 600-630 nm). The absorbance is proportional to the concentration of IgG antibodies present. The test is performed manually or using the Mago Plus automated EIA processor in a clinical laboratory setting. Results assist clinicians in diagnosing thyroid autoimmune diseases. The device provides quantitative results in IU/ml.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance evaluated using 207 frozen retrospective, clinically characterized sera. Clinical specificity in normal populations was 97.7% (95% CI: 94.3-99.4). Clinical sensitivity was 38.5% (95% CI: 13.9-68.4) for Grave's Disease and 64.3% (95% CI: 35.1-87.2) for Hashimoto's Disease. Relative sensitivity and specificity compared to a commercial ELISA were 83.3% and 97.2% respectively. Precision studies (intra-assay and inter-assay) were conducted across two sites with CV% values reported for both manual and Mago Plus automated methods.
Technological Characteristics
Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) utilizing microwells coated with Thyroglobulin (TG) antigen. Detection via horseradish peroxidase-labeled anti-human IgG conjugate and substrate conversion measured spectrophotometrically at 450 nm. Compatible with manual processing or Mago Plus automated EIA processor. Quantitative output in IU/ml.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative detection and quantitation of IgG antibodies against Thyroglobulin (TG) antigen in human serum to aid in the diagnosis of thyroid autoimmune disease.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A thyroid autoantibody immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the thyroid autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues). Measurement of thyroid autoantibodies may aid in the diagnosis of certain thyroid disorders, such as Hashimoto's disease (chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis), nontoxic goiter (enlargement of thyroid gland), Grave's disease (enlargement of the thyroid gland with protrusion of the eyeballs), and cancer of the thyroid.
