Application of TOOS in Liver Function Routine Test Kit

In the field of medical diagnosis, routine liver function tests are an important means of assessing liver health status. The liver, as an important organ in the human body, undertakes various physiological functions such as detoxification, metabolism, and energy storage. Therefore, accurate and rapid detection of liver function indicators is of great significance for clinical diagnosis and treatment. TOOS (N-ethyl-N - (2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl) -3-methylaniline sodium salt) plays an important role as an efficient and highly sensitive colorimetric reagent in routine liver function test kits.

Basic characteristics of TOOS

TOOS is a white crystalline powder with good water solubility and stability. The specific functional groups in its molecular structure enable it to generate red quinone imine compounds in enzymatic reactions, thereby achieving quantitative detection of target substances. TOOS has high sensitivity, which makes it more advantageous in routine liver function tests.

Application of TOOS in routine liver function examination

1. Detection of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST)

ALT and AST are important indicators reflecting the degree of liver cell damage. When liver cells are damaged, ALT and AST are released into the bloodstream, leading to an increase in the concentration of these two enzymes in the blood. The liver function routine examination kit using TOOS as a colorimetric reagent can accurately and quickly measure the concentrations of ALT and AST in the blood. By comparing the concentrations of ALT and AST in the patient's blood with the normal reference range, doctors can determine whether and to what extent the patient's liver cells are damaged.

2. Detection of Adenosine Deaminase (ADA)

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is another sensitive indicator reflecting liver lesions. In routine liver function tests, the detection of ADA is of great significance for the diagnosis of diseases such as hepatitis and cirrhosis. TOOS can form adenosine deaminase detection reagents with EDTA dipotassium, bovine serum albumin, etc. By measuring the absorbance of the red quinone imine compound generated in the reaction system, the activity of ADA can be calculated. The increase in ADA activity often indicates the presence of liver lesions, providing important diagnostic evidence for doctors.

3. Detection of other liver function indicators

In addition to ALT, AST, and ADA, routine liver function tests also include the detection of total bilirubin (TBil), direct bilirubin (DBil), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), and other indicators. These indicators are of great significance for evaluating the metabolism, excretion, and synthesis functions of the liver. Although TOOS may not be a direct colorimetric reagent in the detection of these indicators, as a new type of Trinder's reagent, it can improve the sensitivity and accuracy of the entire detection system by being used in combination with other reagents.

Advantages of TOOS

1. High sensitivity: TOOS has higher sensitivity and lower detection limit, making routine liver function tests more accurate and reliable.

2. Fast and convenient: By utilizing the color reaction principle of TOOS, it is possible to achieve rapid detection of liver function indicators, shorten detection time, and improve detection efficiency.

3. Good stability: TOOS exhibits good stability during storage and use, reducing detection errors caused by reagent deterioration.

Conclusion

TOOS, as an efficient and highly sensitive colorimetric reagent, plays an important role in routine liver function test kits. By accurately and rapidly measuring the concentrations of liver function indicators such as ALT, AST, ADA in the blood, important diagnostic criteria are provided for doctors. However, the cost and operational complexity of TOOS still need to be addressed. In the future, with the continuous advancement of technology and the reduction of costs, TOOS is expected to be applied in a wider range of fields, providing more accurate and convenient detection methods for medical diagnosis. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen research and development on TOOS to further improve its sensitivity and accuracy, providing stronger support for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
