PRODUCT NAME:
Product Name: Vancomycin CLIA Kit (Chemiluminescence Immunoassay)
Abbreviation: VM
INTENDED USE:
Vancomycin CLIA Kit (Chemiluminescence Immunoassay) is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative detection of
Vancomycin (VM) in human serum and plasma specimen. This product is intended to be used by laboratory professional workers
only. This kit is used for auxiliary diagnosis. Results must be combined with clinical observations, patient history, other laboratory
parameters, and epidemiological information.
Vancomycin, a tricyclic glycopeptide antibiotic, is the clinically preferred antibiotic for the treatment of severe infections caused
by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis, and penicillin-resistant
Streptococcus pneumoniae. It has a strong bactericidal effect on Gram-positive bacteria. But VM has a narrow therapeutic index,
significant differences in individual metabolism, and significant ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Therefore, it is necessary to
monitor its blood concentration to adjust medication in clinical application.
