ichroma Testosterone – Total Testosterone Test Cartridge

Key Features

• Quantitative testosterone measurement: Provides accurate assessment of total circulating testosterone.

• Rapid testing: Generates results within minutes on ichroma analyzers.

• Simple workflow: Single-use cartridge designed for easy and reliable operation.

• High analytical accuracy: Uses testosterone-specific antibodies with fluorescent labeling.

• Small sample volume: Requires only a small amount of serum or plasma.

Clinical Applications

• Evaluation of male hypogonadism (low testosterone)

• Assessment of androgen excess conditions

• Monitoring testosterone replacement therapy

• Investigation of infertility in males and females

• Hormonal profiling in endocrine disorders

• Supportive test in conditions affecting sexual development and function

Principle of the Test

The assay uses a fluorescence immunoassay method:

1. A serum or plasma sample is applied to the cartridge.

2. Testosterone in the sample binds to fluorescently labeled antibodies.

3. The ichroma analyzer measures fluorescence intensity, which corresponds to testosterone concentration.

Typical Output

• Quantitative Total Testosterone result displayed on the analyzer

• Helps clinicians interpret hormonal status along with LH, FSH, SHBG, and estradiol levels
