This document provides instructions for using a phosphorus test reagent kit that uses a molybdate U.V. method to quantitatively determine phosphorus levels. The kit is intended for in vitro use in a clinical laboratory to estimate phosphorus in serum, plasma, or urine. Phosphorus levels are important for bone and cell function. The procedure involves reacting a sample with ammonium molybdate to form a phosphomolybdate complex, which is measured at 340nm. Absorbance readings are used to calculate phosphorus levels based on a standard curve.

Phosphorus LS Mono-test
Molybdate U.V. Method
50 x 1 mL Store at 2-8C
Quantitative determination of Phosphors by means of Molybdate U. V. Test.
Phosphorus in mg/dL = (Abs. T) - (Abs. B) x 5 (Standard) Only for in vitro use in clinical laboratory (IVD). (Abs. S) - (Abs. B) Application sheets for automated systems are available on request. Intended Use: Phosphorus(Inorganic) test reagent/kits is a medical device intended for the estimation of Phosphorus(Inorganic) in serum, plasma or Calibrators and Controls urine. It is recommended that appropriate quality control sera and/or controls be run with Clinical Significance each assay batch to monitor procedural parameters. Phosphorus is an essential mineral for tissue bone formation and is required by every cell in the body for normal function. Approximately 85% of the body phosphorus is found in bone and in teeth. Low levels of phosphorus can be caused by hyper Reference Range vitaminosis D, primary hyper parathyroidism, renal tubular disorders, antacids or Serum or plasma malabsorption. High levels of phosphorus can be caused by diet, bone metastases, Children 4.0 – 6.50 mg/dL liver disease, alcohol ingestion, diarrhea and vomiting. Adults 2.5 – 5.0 mg/dL Urine Principle Adults 0.3 – 1.0 gm /24 hours When Inorganic phosphorus reacts with ammonium molybdic, in an acidic medium, it form Phosphomolybdate complex, which is measured in the U.V. range i.e. 340nm. These values are for orientation purpose; each laboratory should The absorbance of this complex is directly proportional to the amount of inorganic establish its own reference range. phosphorus present in the sample. Performance Characteristics Linearity: Up to 20 mg/dL Reagents Reagent 1: Molybdate Reagent : 50 x 1 mL When values exceed this range the samples should be diluted Reagent 2: Phosphorus Standard (05mg/dL) :1 x 2 mL appropriately with Distilled water and the result multiplied by the dilution Prewashed yellow Micropipette tips : 50 nos. factor.
