Inaccuracy of laboratory medicine diagnostic tests may be associated with ingestion of over-the-counter biotin supplements.
Full description
Study group 1) Due to a lack of systematic studies, little is known about how performance of specific biotinylated immunoassays is associated with biotin ingestion at doses common in over-the-counter supplements (10 mg/d) in healthy adults and subjects with thyroid hormone supplementation. Therefore, this study was designed to assess the association of short-term biotin ingestion for 10 days with performance of various analytes based on Roche, Abbott and Siemens assays.
Study group 2) Due to a lack of systematic studies, little is known about how performance of specific biotinylated immunoassays is associated with biotin ingestion at doses common in multivitamin supplements (biotin = 50 µg/d) in healthy adults. Therefore, this study was designed to assess the association of short-term biotin ingestion for 20 days with performance of various analytes based on Roche, Abbott and Siemens assays.
