Lorne LabRose Waaler Rheumatoid Factor Detection Kit

SHARE

The Rose Waaler kit is a diagnostic tool using passive haemagglutination for detecting human serum Rheumatoid Factor, which aids in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. This kit utilizes sheep red blood cells coated with an antiserum at a concentration insufficient to cause agglutination on its own. However, when serum from a patient suspected of having Rheumatoid Factor is added, agglutination occurs, thereby confirming the presence of the factor. The kit is engineered to support either 50 tests or 100 tests, offering versatility for different laboratory needs. It has a notable shelf life of 30 months, ensuring long-term availability for repeated usage. For those seeking safety data sheets, these documents are accessible online, providing additional technical information essential for laboratory professionals. The product is primarily available for order within the UK, with international distribution facilitated through a network of external distributors.

Rose Waaler is a technique of passive haemagglutination for qualitative and semi-quantitative detection of human serum Rheumatoid Factor. Sheep red blood cells are coated with a concentration of antiserum to sheep red blood cells that is too low to cause agglutination. The addition of serum from a patient with Rheumatoid Factor will cause agglutination. The kit is designed to provide 50 or 100 tests.
