Intended Use  

In vitro determination of Mitochondrial Aspartate aminotransferase(mAST) in human serum

(mAST) activity.

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is widely present in many organs, including heart, liver, skeletal muscle, and kidney in order of abundance. two isozymes of AST, controlled by different genes, are present in the cytoplasm (cAST) and mitochondria (mAST). mAST is an isoenzyme of aspartate aminotransferase located in the mitochondria, and the release of the mitochondrial enzyme is higher in severe tissue injury. This can lead to an increase in serum mAST. An increase in serum mAST reflects the severity of subcellular structural damage and is a sensitive indicator for the diagnosis of hepatocellular damage and myocardial infarction. In liver disease, mAST can be used to evaluate hepatocyte necrosis and determine healing, and to diagnose patients with active alcoholic liver disease; in heart disease, it can determine the effectiveness of treatment and healing of myocardial infarction.

Test Principle

This method is based on the determination of mAST activity in the presence of a protease that completely inhibits the activity of cAST without affecting the activity of mAST, and subsequently using a method for measuring total AST activity.

In the AST rate assay the enzyme coupling reaction equation is

AST

L-aspartic acid + α-ketoglutaric acid Oxaloacetate + L-glutamic acid

MDH

Oxaloacetic acid + NADH + H+ L-malic acid + NAD+ + H2 O

The mAST quality control was measured and the test results were within the quality control range before the samples were tested.

  1. Operation steps

Mitochondrial Aspartate Aminotransferase(mAST) Assay Kit

  1. Calculation method

Sample △A/min Sample concentration = ——- × standard concentration

Standard △A/min

Reference Range

<10U/L

No less than 100 normal population blood samples were selected through clinical trials and analyzed by fully automated biochemical analysis

The measured values were statistically processed and the reference range was calculated.

It is recommended that each laboratory establish its own reference range!

Limitations of test results.

The Mitochondrial Aspartate aminotransferase(mAST) (mAST) assay is only one of the most important tests that clinicians can perform on patients with

The clinician also has to make a diagnosis based on the patient’s physical symptoms, medical history, and his or her

Its diagnostic items, diagnostic tools for comprehensive judgment.

Interpretation of test results

Human error, sample handling, deviation of analytical instruments, etc. can affect the determination results; when

If individual samples deviate too far from the expected value, they need to be re-measured.

Performance indicators

  1. 1. reagent blank absorbance ≥ 0.800 at 37℃, 340nm wavelength, 1cm optical diameter.

The rate of change of absorbance of the reagent blank when the reagent is added to the test with saline as the sample

(ΔA/min) should be ≤ 0.020.

  1. Precision: Repeatability CV ≤ 5%; relative extreme difference between batches R ≤ 10%.
  2. Accuracy: Relative deviation ≤ 10%.
  3. Linearity range: 0~300U/L, r≥0.990.
