Preanalytical, analytical, gestational and pediatric aspects of the S100B immuno-assays

Abstract: Background: Traumatic brain injury management is a tricky issue in children and pregnant women (due to adverse effects of computer tomography). To facilitate management, we report the main analytical performances and reference ranges for blood tests for the wellestablished S100B biomarker in under-16 children on a DiaSorin ® Liaison XL analyzer and in pregnant women on DiaSorin ® Liaison XL and Roche Diagnostics ® Cobas e411 analyzers. Methods: Serum S100B concentrations were determined by chemiluminescent imm… Show more

“…To our knowledge, data on UCHL-1 and GFAP levels in healthy newborns are not available, so we instead used S100B values which have been reported to decrease from an average of 0.9 to 0.3 ng/ml in the first postnatal months and further decrease to 0.11 ng/ml in adolescence [23]. For healthy adults, S100B levels in serum are below 0.1–0.12 ng/ml [3, 24, 25].…”

“…Elevated serum S100β in the first three months of life (mean=0.97±0.36µg/L) supports the development of the CNS (46), stimulating neuronal growth (47), glial cell proliferation (48), and increases neuronal survival and maturation (46). In healthy individuals, S100β levels stabilise between ages 2-16y (0.20µg/L) (46). However, elevated levels at other points in life correlate with several neurodegenerative and neuropsychological conditions, with the diagnostic potential of S100β mostly explored in relation to TBI.…”

“…The S100β has dualistic effects, largely dependent upon its local concentration and the stage of human development. Elevated serum S100β in the first three months of life (mean=0.97±0.36µg/L) supports the development of the CNS (46), stimulating neuronal growth (47), glial cell proliferation (48), and increases neuronal survival and maturation (46). In healthy individuals, S100β levels stabilise between ages 2-16y (0.20µg/L) (46).…”

“…However, automated assays present better analytical results with regard to precision, linearity, or accuracy, and appear to be a preferable option for S100B measurement. 50,51 Only Babcock et al 41 presented a nonoptimal 100% sensitivity, and a manual assay was used in that study. Other studies 52,53 not included in our meta-analysis (because the authors also included moderate and severe TBI) revealed a nonoptimal sensitivity of ∼75% by using manual assays.…”
