Test ID ADALP Adalimumab Quantitative with Antibody, Serum
Method Name
QNADL, ABADL: Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
INTAD: Technical Interpretation
Ordering Guidance
If there is a known justification for performing both quantitation and antibody levels, this is the correct test to order. If there is not a known reason to perform the adalimumab antibody component, consider ADALX / Adalimumab Quantitative with Reflex to Antibody, Serum. ADALX testing begins with adalimumab quantitation and testing for adalimumab antibodies is only performed when the quantitation results are 8.0 mcg/mL or less.
Specimen Required
Patient Preparation: For 12 hours before specimen collection, patient should not take multivitamins or dietary supplements (eg, hair, skin, and nail supplements) containing biotin (vitamin B7).
