Description
HEIA Benzodiazepines Reagent BZO for ImmTox 270 Toxicology
The HEIA Benzodiazepines Reagent is specifically designed for use in the ImmTox 270 Machine, a high-throughput immunoassay analyzer used in toxicology screening. This reagent is utilized to detect the presence of benzodiazepines in biological samples, such as urine or blood, through homogeneous enzyme immunoassay (HEIA) technology.
How It Works in the ImmTox 270 Machine:
Sample Preparation: A biological specimen (typically urine) is prepared and loaded into the ImmTox 270 Machine.
Reagent Interaction: The HEIA Benzodiazepines Reagent is added to the sample, where it binds to benzodiazepine molecules if present.
Enzyme Reaction: The reagent utilizes a competitive binding mechanism, where benzodiazepine molecules in the sample compete with a labeled drug conjugate for antibody binding.
Optical Measurement: The machine measures the enzymatic reaction through changes in absorbance or fluorescence.
Data Interpretation: The ImmTox 270 processes the results and displays the concentration of benzodiazepines present.
Results and Their Interpretation:
Positive Result: Indicates the presence of benzodiazepines at or above the assay’s threshold, suggesting recent drug use or exposure.
Negative Result: Suggests that benzodiazepines are not detected or are below the test’s sensitivity limit.
Quantitative Data: The ImmTox 270 can provide approximate concentration levels, which can be useful for determining compliance in drug monitoring programs or assessing potential overdose risks.
Cross-Reactivity Considerations: Some benzodiazepine metabolites may show varying degrees of cross-reactivity, which should be confirmed with further analytical testing such as GC-MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry).
The HEIA Benzodiazepines Reagent in combination with the ImmTox 270 Machine provides a fast, reliable, and automated method for detecting benzodiazepine use in clinical and forensic settings.
