The Piccolo® MetLyte 8 Panel, used with the Piccolo® blood chemistry analyzer or the PiccoloXpress® chemistry analyzer, is intended to be used for the in vitro quantitative determination of chloride, creatine kinase, creatinine, glucose, potassium, sodium, total carbon dioxide and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in heparinized whole blood, heparinized plasma, or serum in a clinical laboratory setting or point-of-care location.The tests on this panel are waived under CLIA ’88 regulations. If a laboratory modifies the test system instructions, then the tests are considered high complexity and subject to all CLIA requirements. For CLIA waived labs, only lithium heparin whole blood may be tested. For use in moderate complexity labs, lithium heparinized whole blood, lithium heparinized plasma, or serum may be used.

The Piccolo® MetLyte Plus CRP reagent disc, used with the Piccolo Xpress® chemistry analyzer, is intended to be used for the in vitro quantitative determination of c-reactive protein (CRP), chloride, creatine kinase, creatinine, glucose, potassium, sodium, total carbon dioxide and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in lithium heparinized whole blood, lithium heparinized plasma, or serum in a clinical laboratory setting or point-of-care location. The Abaxis CRP method is not intended for high sensitivity CRP measurement.

The Piccolo® AmLyte 13 , used with the Piccolo Xpress® chemistry analyzer, is intended to be used for the in vitro quantitative determination of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), albumin, amylase, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), calcium, c-reactive protein (CRP), creatine kinase, creatinine, glucose, potassium, sodium, total bilirubin and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in lithium heparinized whole blood, lithium heparinized plasma, or serum in a clinical laboratory setting or point-of-care location. The Abaxis CRP method is not intended for high sensitivity CRP measurement.
