Beckman Coulter Chemistry Calibrators are lyophilized, human serum based products formulated for use as a reference material when calibrating Beckman Coulter AU clinical chemistry system assays. The calibrators are used to calibrate the following assays: Albumin (ALB), Bicarbonate (CO2), Direct Bilirubin (DBIL), Total Bilirubin (TBIL), Calcium Arsenazo (CALA), Calcium (CAL oCPC), Cholesterol (CHOL), Creatinine (CREA), Glucose (GLU), Phosphorus (PHOS), Iron, Lactate, Magnesium (MG), Total Protein (TP), Triglyceride (TRIG), Unbound Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC), Urea Nitrogen (BUN), and Uric Acid.
