Notice on new assays including gamma-glutamyltransferase (published in German)
University Medical Center Mainz, Clinical Chemistry · 2022
What this work gives Aellic
With new reagents introduced on 26 April 2022 the laboratory set gamma-glutamyltransferase upper limits of below 55 U/l for men and below 38 U/l for women (previously below 64 and below 36 U/l); old and new assays agreed very well. Not the source of the app's gamma-GT limit (see dgkl_vdgh2005).
Correction of 25 October 2026
The registry said these limits were lower than “the classic 60 and 40 U/l” and that this showed the limit depends on the method. The notice says neither: it compares against the laboratory's own previous limits of 64 and 36 U/l and reports very good agreement between the old and the new assay.
The entry on the register was wrong. It was not replaced but kept, with what holds instead standing next to it.
Where this sits in the engine
This work is on the register, but nothing computes with it today, mostly because the feature it belongs to has not been built yet. It is listed so the numbers on the overview do not claim more than they carry.
