Bromcresol Green

Abstract The usefulness of bromcresol green for estimating albumin in urine was evaluated by comparison with the Laurell "rocket" technique. In contrast to the bromcresol green method applied for urinary albumin, rather doubtful results were obtained with conventional (Microzone) electrophoresis for albumin and with precipitation techniques for total protein estimation. Albumin estimation with bromcresol green is recommended as a more reliable substitute for total-protein estimations in urine. Limitations of bromcresol green are also pointed out.

This chapter explains the essential principles that must underlie meaningful laboratory data in terms of the production of an accurate result and an intelligent interpretation of its significance. These principles are illustrated by reference to three measurements that nephrologists commonly request: serum creatinine (Jaffe to creatinase); urinary albumin and total protein (Lowry and tetrabromphenol blue to immunoassay); and parathyroid hormone (first to third generation immunoassays). These analytes are placed in their historical and clinical context, and the progress that has been made, and that still needs to be made, in terms of obtaining trueness is outlined. The aim is to provide an understanding of the production of laboratory data, and of some of the pitfalls in its interpretation.
