Most laboratories in Pakistan use expensive imported clinical chemistry reagent kits resulting in high cost/test to the patients. To reduce these costs, reagents were prepared from basic chemicals, substrates and enzymes imported from Sigma Chemical Company U.K. This reduced the cost/test by up to 500% in some reagents. The quality of these reagents was tested by Wellcome External, Q.C. Locally prepared reagents were comparable to or better than commercial reagents systems in terms of accuracy and precision. This paper describes the preparations according to I.F.C.C., costs and quality control of some of the reagents i.e., glucose, calcium, bilirubin, albumin, total protein, urea, ALT, AST and LDH and their comparisons with equivalent commercial kits.
