FT3 Test Kit

Introduction FT3 Test Kit

The Free Triiodothyronine (FT3) Test Kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of free T3 in human serum or plasma. FT3 is the unbound form of a thyroid hormone involved in regulating metabolism and other physiological functions. The kit is supplied in a 100-test pack and is stated to be compatible with the CLIA PV 1800 analyzer.

Clinical Applications of the Free T3 Test Kit

Free T3 measurement can support the assessment of thyroid function when interpreted alongside TSH and Free T4 results. It may be useful in evaluating selected cases of suspected hyperthyroidism and other thyroid-related conditions.

Potential laboratory applications include:

• Quantitative measurement of Free T3 in human serum or plasma

• Supporting thyroid function assessment alongside other thyroid tests

• Evaluation of thyroid hormone status when clinically indicated

• Use in clinical diagnostic laboratories and related laboratory settings

FT3 results should be interpreted in conjunction with the laboratory's reference interval, the patient's clinical presentation, and other relevant thyroid tests. An FT3 result alone is not sufficient to establish a definitive diagnosis of a thyroid disorder.

General Product Specifications

Key Features of the FT3 Test Kit

The kit is intended for quantitative measurement of free triiodothyronine in laboratory settings. Its 100-test format can help laboratories plan routine testing and inventory requirements.

Key features include:

• Quantitative Free T3 measurement: Measures the unbound form of triiodothyronine in patient samples.

• 100-test pack: Supports laboratory stock and testing-volume planning.

• Stated compatibility with CLIA PV 1800: Verify compatibility with the specific analyzer model and the manufacturer's technical instructions before use.

• Support for thyroid assessment: Can be used alongside other thyroid function tests as clinically indicated.

Why Measure Free T3?

Triiodothyronine circulates in the blood in both free and protein-bound forms. The FT3 test measures the free fraction and is generally less affected by changes in hormone-binding proteins than a Total T3 test. However, results still require interpretation in the appropriate clinical context.

Altered FT3 levels may occur in certain thyroid disorders. Evaluating FT3 alongside TSH and Free T4 can provide additional information about thyroid function. Clinical assessment and other laboratory findings are needed to determine the significance of an individual result.

Buying the Free T3 Test Kit

Before purchasing a Free T3 test kit, review the accepted sample types, assay method, pack size, storage requirements, and compatibility with your laboratory analyzer. Check the product insert and manufacturer's instructions before routine use.
