Autoimmune Thyroid Disease

The tests available to support the diagnosis of ATD are:

EliA TPO (14-5641-01) / EliA TG (14-5642-01)

EliA TPO and EliA TG have excellent sensitivity and specificity - helping to rapidly provide clinical insight in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease1 Performance of EliA TPO and EliA TG in 400 samples (100 Hashimoto's and Graves' disease; controls 50 non-AI Thyroiditis, 25 CTD, 10 IBD, 10 PBC, 20 HIV, 20 HCV, 20 HBV, 20 other infectious and 25 cancer samples); internal study (data on file). *Positive predictive value

Cut-off/measuring range

Negative Equivocal Positive Measuring range
EliA TG <40 GPL-U/ml 40-60 GPL-U/ml >60 GPL-U/ml 2-≥4794 U/ml
EliA TPO <25 U/ml 25-35 U/ml >35 U/ml 4-≥1542 U/ml

Coating

  • EliA TPO - human recombinant TPO antigen
  • EliA TG - human thyroglobulin antigen

Dilution

  • EliA TPO - 1:200
  • EliA TG - 1:100

Sample material

  • Serum, plasma (EDTA, citrate, heparin)

Cut-off/measuring range, coating, dilution and sample material have been taken from respective Phadia 250 DFUs. The data is intended as a guide and should be treated accordingly. If you have any questions or uncertainty please contact your local service team or Laboratory Sales Representative.
