Evermed Theophylline Homogeneous Enzyme Immunoassay | |
* CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS | |
Theophylline is used to ease breathing and stimulate respiration [1] and is a kind of medicine primarily used to treat bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis and cardiac asthma, acute and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [2], which needs therapeutic drug monitoring by determining its concentration in serum or plasma in most of the time [3-4].A narrow therapeutic index necessitates an accurate and reliable means for the measurement of theophylline concentration in human body fluid such as serum, plasma and urine. Due to the low therapeutic index, the increasing number of theophylline intoxications and the large number of potential patients worldwide, a high throughput detection method with high sensitivity and specificity is introduced herein. | |
