Constantinos, I'm afraid I'd only do that if I were in dire straits. I'm sure the asker will be satisfied with one of our answers.
Constantinos Faridis (X) Mar 27, 2010:

agree Joanne Archambault : yup, max end of this assay was 500 ng/ml in the late 90s and was extended to 1000 ng/nl and then 2000 ng/ml in newer VIDAL models

thanks Joanne
agree Lionel_M (X) : Michael, not a range here but a given value (500) no ?//Thanks Michael. I just saw Joanne comments too ☺

Given to indicate the normal reference range. In this case the upper limit considered 'negative'. It is not a target value; it is what was considered an upper limit of normal for clinical purposes of interpreting the test results.// Thanks Lionel
agree SJLD : yes, "up to 500" is a range
