BÜHLMANN fPELA® turbo

BÜHLMANN fPELA® turbo, the turbidimetric immunoassay, is a flexible solution to be applied on most clinical chemistry analyzers. The technology is a milestone in automation of pancreatic elastase quantification. It allows very rapid and flexible random access use, as well as being the ideal solution for high throughput applications in the routine laboratory. The fPELA turbo assay reduces the hands-on time dramatically and allows reporting pancreatic elastase results from human stool samples within shortest time.

The CALEX® Cap stool preparation device is the ideal combination with the BÜHLMANN fPELA® turbo. The extracts are ready to analyze and the CALEX device can be applied directly into the clinical chemistry analyzer. The same extraction buffer for pancreatic elastase AND fecal calprotectin allows the quantitation of both analytes from the same sample preparation.

Quantum Blue® fPELA

Quantum Blue® rapid tests offer the convenience and speed of lateral flow technology, while also providing quantitative measurement capabilities within 15 minutes, through a compact reading device. The fecal pancreatic elastase assay is designed for the quantitative determination of pancreatic elastase, supporting the diagnosis of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI). With a measuring range optimized for clinical needs, Quantum Blue® fPELA enables fast and reliable assessment of the pancreatic function.

In combination with the CALEX® Cap device, the extracts are directly ready to be applied onto the test cassette. This allows for reproducible, easy and fast results. With the same CALEX® extract, you can use it to measure both BÜHLMANN fecal calprotectin and fecal pancreatic elastase.
