Intended Use
Reagent for the quantitative determination of Sodium, Potassium and Chloride concentrations in human serum and urine on the Beckman Coulter
ISE modules.
Summary
Electrolytes affect most metabolic processes. They serve to maintain osmotic pressure and hydration of various body fluid compartments, proper
body pH and regulation of appropriate heart and muscle functions. Electrolytes are also involved in oxidation-reduction reactions and participate as
1
essential parts or, cofactors, in enzyme reactions.
Methodology
The determination of electrolytes is one of the most important functions in the clinical laboratory. Methods of determining electrolytes include
emission spectrophotometry, flame spectrophotometry, neutron activation analysis, atomic absorption spectroscopy and ion selective electrodes.
+
+
The ISE module for Na , K , and Cl employs crown ether membrane electrodes for sodium and potassium and a molecular oriented PVC membrane
for chloride that are specific for each ion of interest in the sample. An electrical potential is developed according to the Nernst Equation for a specific
ion. When compared to the Internal Reference Solution, this electrical potential is translated into voltage and then into the ion concentration of the
1
sample.

Precautions
1. For in vitro diagnostic use.
2. Do not ingest. Harmful if swallowed.
Preparation of Reagents
The reagents are ready to use. No preparation is required.
Storage and Stability
1. The unopened reagents are stable until the expiration date printed on the label when stored at 2 – 25°C. AUH1017 is stored at 15 - 25°C.
2. AUH1011, AUH1012, and AUH1013 are stable for 90 days when opened and stored in the ISE reagent compartment of the analyzer.
3. After opening AUH1014, AUH1015, AUH1016, and AUH1018 may be stored at 2 – 25°C for up to 90 days, provided the cap is replaced
immediately after each use. After opening, AUH1017 may be stored at 15 - 25°C for up to 90 days.

Indications of Deterioration
Turbidity or precipitation in the unopened liquids and working reagents may indicate decomposition and warrant discontinuance of use. Refer to the
ISE section of the respective AU analyzer’s User’s Guide for additional information.
Specimen Collection And Preparation
Serum, free from hemolysis, is the recommended specimen.
Sample Stability
+
Separate serum from blood cells as soon as possible. Avoid hemolysis since it can lead to falsely elevated K values. If plasma must be used, the
recommended anticoagulants are lithium heparin and ammonium heparin. Urine samples should be collected in a clean, leak-proof container and
should not be acidified. If transport is delayed, specimens should be kept refrigerated at 2 - 8°C. The recommended collection times for urine
2
specimens, to determine the analyte of interest, are as follows.
Sodium:
Potassium:
Chloride:
24 hour collection
24 hour collection
24 hour collection
Sample Storage
Sodium and potassium are stable in serum for at least one week when stored at 2 - 8°C. Chloride is stable in serum for one week when stored at
2
2 - 30°C. Store the sample in a stoppered tube if analysis is delayed.
Urine specimens should be stored at 2 - 8°C.
Interfering Substances
Certain anticoagulants, preservatives, drugs, and organophilic compounds may affect electrolyte determinations. For further information on
3
interfering substances, refer to Young for a compilation of reported interferences with this test. Visually turbid urine specimens should be centrifuged
2
prior to analysis. Grossly lipemic samples may show an inappropriate decrease in sodium, potassium, and chloride results due to volume
displacement. Such samples should be ultracentrifuged and the analysis performed on the infranatant (middle clear layer).

Suggested Analytical Parameters
Refer to the ISE Section located in the respective AU analyzer’s User’s Guide for a complete listing of test parameters and procedure.
Stability of Final Reaction Mixture
The Beckman Coulter AU analyzer automatically computes every determination at the same interval at 37°C.
Calibration
Refer to the ISE section of the respective AU analyzer’s User’s Guide for a complete listing of the recommended calibration procedures. This
procedure should be used to calibrate daily.
Quality Control
During operation of the Beckman Coulter AU analyzer at least two levels of an appropriate control material should be tested a minimum of once a
day. In addition, controls should be performed after calibration, with each new lot of reagent, and after specific maintenance or troubleshooting steps
described in the appropriate Beckman Coulter AU analyzer User’s Guide. Quality control testing should be performed in accordance with regulatory
requirements and each laboratory’s standard procedure.
Appropriate qualified urine controls should be used during urine analysis.
Results
Results are automatically printed out for each sample in mEq/L.
Dynamic Range
The ISE Module procedures are linear in serum, plasma or urine samples as follows:
Serum
Urine

+
Na
50 – 200 mEq/L
Na
10 – 400 mEq/L

K
2.0 – 200.0 mEq/L
50 – 200 mEq/L
Cl
15 – 400 mEq/L
Cl
Samples exceeding the dynamic range of the assay should be diluted with deionized water and reassayed. The results obtained must be multiplied
by the dilution factor to obtain the correct concentration for the undiluted sample.

Expected values may vary with age, sex, diet and geographical location. Good laboratory practice dictates that each laboratory determine its own
expected values.
