The CELTIC ranges project (Comprehensive and Effective Laboratory Test Reference Intervals for Irish Children) methodology and results for renal profile tests in plasma on the Roche ModularTM system.

Our renal profile findings are broadly consistent with those of international studies e.g. CALIPER, HAPPI, NORDIC, Prince and KiGGs. Moreover, the CELTIC Ranges study is also based on over 1000 subjects whose samples were analysed on the widely used Roche Modular analytics system. We also expect the findings will improve knowledge of children's metabolic health in Ireland.
