Clinical Chemistry and Clinical Toxicology

Clinical chemistry and toxicology is a discipline that closely integrates chemistry, toxicology, and clinical medicine, focusing on the study of the effects of various chemicals and poisons on the human body. Based on the characteristics of this discipline, our company offers a flexible and efficient portfolio of in vitro diagnostic (IVD) products and advanced diagnostic equipment to fulfill the diagnostic needs of patients in the field of clinical chemistry and clinical toxicology.

Accurate Diagnosis in Clinical Chemistry and Toxicology

Clinical chemistry and clinical toxicology are two disciplines that closely integrate chemistry, toxicology, and clinical medicine. Clinical chemistry focuses on the chemical constituents of body fluids and their physiologic and pathologic changes and uses in vitro testing to support disease diagnosis and treatment. Examples include monitoring and managing diabetes by testing glucose levels in the blood to help adjust insulin therapy, assessing kidney function, and early detection of kidney disease by measuring blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine levels.

Clinical toxicology studies the effects of chemicals and poisons on the human body, especially in the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic poisoning. For example, in clinical toxicology, the level of 25(OH)D in human blood can be measured to determine the amount of vitamin D in the body, thus helping to formulate an appropriate treatment plan for people suffering from vitamin D poisoning.

IVD Applications of Clinical Chemistry and Clinical Toxicology

Clinical chemistry focuses on analyzing the chemical constituents of body fluids to assess the physiological status of patients, diagnose diseases, and monitor the effectiveness of treatments. Clinical toxicology can be used to detect drugs and poisons in the body to support drug abuse monitoring and toxicological poisoning analysis.

In the area of IVD, Alta DiagnoTech offers innovative IVD products based on expertise in clinical chemistry and clinical toxicology. Our products can be used to detect and characterize a variety of biomarkers in a patient's body to help healthcare professionals develop a personalized treatment plan.

Toxicology Test Kits

Toxicology test kits are specialized tools for rapid screening of human samples (such as urine, saliva, etc.) to detect the presence of drugs or their metabolites. Alta DiagnoTech offers highly sensitive, multi-drug toxicology test kits covering common substances like fentanyl, morphine, and methamphetamine. Supporting rapid on-site analysis, these kits empower law enforcement agencies to conduct efficient investigations while providing healthcare institutions with precise monitoring solutions for drug rehabilitation treatment.

Test Items of Toxicology Test Kits

Test Substance	Test Method	Applications
Fentanyl and metabolites	Fluorescent immunoassay/colloidal gold assay	For rapid screening of fentanyl abuse, assisting in the diagnosis of fentanyl-related overdoses and addiction cases.
Methamphetamine	Colloidal gold assay	For the identification of methamphetamine abuse, preventing serious health issues caused by long-term misuse, such as cardiovascular disease and psychiatric disorders.
Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (cannabis)	Colloidal gold assay	Used in workplace drug testing, roadside sobriety checks, and medical settings to monitor patient compliance with cannabis-free treatment plans or assess cannabis-related functional impairment.
Morphine	Colloidal gold assay	Used to monitor patients receiving morphine therapy to prevent overdose, and to identify illicit morphine use in forensic identification and drug control scenarios.
Ketamine	Colloidal gold assay	Used to detect ketamine use, preventing dissociative states, bladder issues, and mental health problems associated with ketamine abuse.
Cocaine and metabolites	Colloidal gold assay	Used to detect cocaine use in drug rehabilitation, forensic investigations, and public health settings, helping curb cocaine abuse.

Biochemical Analyzer

The biochemical analyzer is a core device for quantitatively detecting biochemical indicators in biological samples such as blood and urine. It employs automated analysis technology to achieve precise testing of parameters including liver function, kidney function, blood lipids, and blood glucose. Alta DiagnoTech's high-performance biochemical analyzer efficiently handles routine biochemical testing while also enabling rapid quantitative analysis of drugs, medications, and their metabolites to meet clinical toxicology requirements.

Product List

Features

• High-Precision Detection: Utilizes advanced optical and sensing technologies to ensure accurate and reliable quantitative analysis results for biochemical indicators and toxic metabolite products.
• Multi-Parameter Simultaneous Testing: Supports concurrent detection of routine biochemical parameters such as liver/kidney function, lipid profiles, and blood glucose, alongside drugs, pharmaceuticals, and their metabolites.
• Rapid Reporting: Significantly reduces testing time through high-speed detection modules and optimized algorithms, making it particularly suitable for point-of-care diagnostic needs in emergency settings.

Urine Analyzer

Urine analyzer s rapidly screen for urinary tract disorders, metabolic abnormalities, and illicit drug or medication abuse by analyzing urine's physical, chemical, and biological properties. The intelligent urinalysis analyzer from Alta DiagnoTech simultaneously performs routine urine parameter testing and quantitative analysis of drug metabolites, delivering efficient and reliable toxicological urine screening solutions for healthcare institutions, forensic identification, and other applications.

Product List

Features

• Multi-parameter Synchronous Detection: Simultaneously analyzes urine's physical properties (e.g., color, clarity), chemical composition (protein, glucose, occult blood, etc.), and formed elements (red blood cells, white blood cells, casts), providing a comprehensive urine health assessment.
• High Sensitivity and Specificity: Utilizes advanced dry-chemistry test strips and flow imaging technology to accurately identify trace components and abnormal cells, particularly suitable for screening clinical toxicology indicators such as drug metabolites and medication residues.
• Rapid Results: Optimized testing procedures and algorithms enable multi-parameter analysis within a short timeframe, ideal for time-sensitive scenarios like emergency rooms and outpatient clinics.
