A Prospective Collection of Peripheral Blood Specimens to Study Vitamin D in Healthy Individuals

To obtain sufficient specimens and correlating clinical data from a well-controlled
prospective clinical trial collecting specimens from healthy subjects t on vitamin D assays,
and to establish a collection of specimens that will support future assay discovery and
validation efforts.

1. Obtain matched serum and plasma specimens collected from a minimum of 50 healthy
subjects in two geographic areas. Specimens will be used to determine a reference
range for a vitamin D assay, used as an aid in the assessment of vitamin D sufficiency
in adults.

2. Obtain serum specimens collected from a minimum of an additional 450 healthy subjects
in two geographic areas. Specimens will be used to determine a reference range for a
vitamin D assay, used as an aid in the assessment of vitamin D sufficiency in adults.

3. To store any remaining specimens for use in future vitamin D assay development and to
evaluate as yet undetermined assays for the development of IVDs, including additional
vitamin D assays
