The paramount importance of chemiluminescence technology—a mainstream technique in immunodiagnostics—in the field of In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) is self-evident. However, in the current highly competitive environment, technological innovation remains the core competitiveness of enterprises. Breaking through the traditional barriers of chemiluminescence and forging new paths is the inevi...

In the first two issues of popular science, the mainstream chemiluminescence technology in immunodiagnosis was introduced, and it was also understood that chemiluminescence is divided into homogeneous chemiluminescence and heterogeneous chemiluminescence according to whether separation and cleaning steps are required. Compared with the traditional heterogeneous immunoassay mode, homogeneous chemil...
Diagnostic evaluation of hypertension The initial laboratory test for hypertension should not only measure basic blood routine items, but also recommend the detection of glycosylated hemoglobin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. This is because people with high blood pressure need to rule out the presence of diabetes. Diabetes mellitus is a common cause of secondary hypertension such as rena...

What are the hormones fertility? When do I need to check? When is the right time to check? What's the point of each one? 1. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) It is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the pituitary gland, and its physiological role is mainly to promote the development and maturation of follicles and secrete estrogen. 2. Luteinizing hormone (LH) It is a glycoprotein hormon...
Platelet activation plays a crucial role in primary hemostasis, which is the initial step in the physiological repair mechanism to prevent further bleeding when blood vessel walls are damaged. Platelet activation involves three processes: platelet adhesion, aggregation, and secretion. These processes lead to the formation of a platelet plug at the site of vessel injury, which is essential for prim...
Thyroid function abnormalities primarily encompass two conditions: Hypothyroidism (commonly referred to as "hypothyroid") and Hyperthyroidism (commonly referred to as "hyperthyroid"). Thyroid function testing plays a vital role in early detection of thyroid diseases and is one of the essential components of a health-up. Thyroid function abnormalities can give rise to various health issues. ...
