1 - Scheme Overview

This external quality assessment allows the control of immunoassays with markers – tumor markers and general hormonology, with an inter-laboratory comparison by peer group.

Statistical reports are sent with supporting comments from the expert clinical biologists who coordinate the scheme.

Participating labs can choose to be assessed for all the analytes of this scheme, or simply a subset of analytes of interest.

We advise laboratories testing more than 18 analytes to order an additional kit.
