AST/GOT 4+1 SL CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE (1-4) Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) also known as glutamate oxa- loacetate transaminase (GOT) is a transaminase. AST catalyses the transfer of the aminogroup of L-aspartate to -ketoglutarate to give L-glutamate. AST is widely distributed in the body, but the highest levels are found in heart, liver, skeletal muscles and kid- neys. Damages to cells of these tissues induce AST increase in serum. In case of fulminant forms of hepatitis, especially viral hepatitis the enzyme level is markedly elevated. In case of myocardial in- farction, AST activity increases and reaches a peak after 18-24 hours. The activity falls back to normal after 4-5 days, provided no new infarct has occurred. The following pathological states are examples of disorders also resulting in an increase of enzyme activity : liver cell necrosis or injury of any cause (for example intake of alcohol, delirium tre- mens, and administration of drug induce moderate AST eleva- tion), alcoholic hepatitis, muscular dystrophy and gangrene, in- fectious mononucleosis, acute pancreatitis, heart affection as myocarditis or pericarditis, pulmonary emboli....

CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE (1-4) Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) also known as glutamate oxa-loacetate transaminase (GOT) is a transaminase. AST catalyses the transfer of the aminogroup of L-aspartate to α-ketoglutarate to give L-glutamate. AST is widely distributed in the body, but the highest levels are found in heart, liver, skeletal muscles and kid-neys. Damages to cells of these tissues induce AST increase in serum. In case of fulminant forms of hepatitis, especially viral hepatitis the enzyme level is markedly elevated. In case of myocardial in-farction, AST activity increases and reaches a peak after 18-24 hours. The activity falls back to normal after 4-5 days, provided no new infarct has occurred. The following pathological states are examples of disorders also resulting in an increase of enzyme activity : liver cell necrosis or injury of any cause (for example intake of alcohol, delirium tre-mens, and administration of drug induce moderate AST eleva-tion), alcoholic hepatitis, muscular dystrophy and gangrene, in-fectious mononucleosis, acute pancreatitis, heart affection as myocarditis or pericarditis, pulmonary emboli.... On the contrary, AST serum level can decrease in case of vitamin B6 deficiency.

QUALITY CONTROL To ensure adequate quality, control sera such as ELITROL I (nor-mal control) and ELITROL II (abnormal control) are recommended.

PERFORMANCE DATA at 37°C for Selectra - Analytical range The reagent is linear from 10 to 250 U/L.

- Detection limit (7) Determined according to SFBC protocol, the detection limit is equal to 2 U/L.

- Analytical Sensitivity The average variation of the analytical signal is 0.57 m∆A/min per U/L of AST for a light path of 1 cm.

- Correlation A comparative study has been performed between ELITech me-thod and another commercial reagent (IFCC method without pyri-doxal phosphate) on 86 human sera samples. The sample concentrations ranged from 5 to 250 U/L.

The parameters of linear regressions are as follows:

Linear regression y = 0.97 x + 0.7 U/L y = 0.94 x + 0.7 U/L

- Interferences (7, 8) According to SFBC recommendations, studies have been per-formed to determine the level of interference from different com-pounds:

Glucose: No significant interference up to 500 mg/dL (5 g/L, 28 mmol/L).

Ascorbic acid: No significant interference up to 40 mg/dL (400 mg/L, 2.3 mmol/L).

Pyruvate: No significant interference up to 2 mg/dL (20 mg/L, 0.23 mmol/L).

UnconjugatedBilirubin: Negative bias from 17.5 mg/dL (175 mg/L, 300 µmol/L).

ConjugatedBilirubin: Negative bias from 11.5 mg/dL (115 mg/L, 200 µmol/L).

Turbidity: No significant interference up to 600 mg/dL Triglyceride equivalent (6 g/L, 6.9 mmol/L).

Methyl-dopa: No significant interference up to 5 mg/dL (50 mg/L, 6.9 µmol/L).

Other compounds may interfere. (9-11)

Note: Hemolysed sera should not be used since significant hemo-lysis may increase AST concentration because of high levels of AST in erythrocytes. �- On board stability (no refrigered) On board stability: 5 days for one-reagent procedure and 14 days for two-reagent procedure (capped vials and stored at 2-8°C during the night). �BIBLIOGRAPHY 1.
