1 ZO M OCTOBER 2017 N 7 sebia FLC Free light chain testing coherent with electrophoretic methods Analytically coherent SPE: 3.1 g/l FLC Nephelometry: 32.2 g/l FLC ELISA: 3.1 g/l Principle The sebia FLC Kappa & sebia FLC Lambda kits are based on a solid phase sandwich enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the measurement of kappa and lambda Free Light Chains (FLC) in human serum. The kits can be used either as a manual technique or fully automated with the das AP22 ELITE Elisa processor. This test has been designed to offer a better coherence with the referenced technics, less retesting and to overcome most of the proven analytical issues related to sflc quantitative assays based on nephelometry/turbidimetry techniques. sebia FLC: ELISA simplified All reagents, calibrators and controls are ready to use Kappa and Lambda plates are pre-coated with polyclonal anti-free light chain antibodies Test are done in single Fully automated Final results can be exported to the LIS Performances Broad dynamic range: 3 to 4 times less retesting than with the historical methods Excellent precision Antigen excess free Enhanced linearity Better coherence with the gold standard for M-spike quantification: Serum Protein Electrophoresis Lower lot-to-lot variability References - PN 5100 sebia FLC Kappa kit - PN 5101 sebia FLC Lambda kit Compatible Instruments - PN 5000 das AP22 ELITE Other references - PN 4785 Normal Control Serum - PN 4787 Hypergamma Control Serum - PN 5300 blocks - PN 5303 Non coated ELISA Plates Related publications - Jacobs FM et al.

2 sflc CLINICAL CASES

3 CLINICAL CASE #1* DATE OF BIRTH April 11 th, 1952 SERUM PEAK/Pathology Kappa Light Chain (K) Multiple Myeloma URINE PEAK Free Light Chain K Maria T. *Real case. Courtesy of an European University Hospital Serum protein electrophoresis by CAPILLARYS PROTEIN(E) 6 M-peaks = 3000 mg/l Two faints monoclonal peaks in the middle of gamma fraction. To be confirmed by immunotyping and/or immunofixation.
