COĆox Module Performance Characteristics
All performance data presented in this section was generated using the 800 system
CO-ox modules. The system performed recommended tHb slope procedures, and
calibrations using the default settings recommended by Bayer Diagnostics for
optimum performance. The operating environment during collection of this data
was normal room temperature (about 23
°
C).
You should determine your own performance characteristics in your laboratory
with your 800 system.
COĆox Module Interfering Substances
To test for interferences, blood was spiked with an interfering substance up to the
test concentration shown in the following two tables. The interference was
calculated by comparing the average difference between the spiked and unspiked
samples.
Any substance that absorbs light in the same regions as whole blood could
potentially cause an interference.
