Key result
Pediatric reference interval for plasma calprotectin established at 16 to 246 µg/L.
Why the study?
A pediatric reference interval for plasma calprotectin using the Phadia 250 EliA™ Calprotectin fluoroenzyme immunoassay has not been established.
Observational (n=141)
The establishment of a pediatric reference interval (16-246 µg/L) for plasma calprotectin enables its further utilization as an inflammatory marker in children.

Hemolysis may invalidate plasma calprotectin results; leaves open pediatric reference interval establishment for this assay.
Blavnsfeldt et al. (2024) conducted an observational in Healthy children (n=141). Plasma calprotectin measurement was evaluated on Pediatric reference interval for plasma calprotectin. The pediatric reference interval for plasma calprotectin in children aged 1 to 17 years was established as 16-246 µg/L.
