Immunochemical assays of serum proteins: a European external quality assessment survey and the effects of calibration procedures on interlaboratory agreement

An external quality assessment survey of immunochemical assays of 9 proteins (immunoglobulins G, A and M, complement components C3 and C4, alpha 1 -antitrypsin, orosomucoid, haptoglobin and transferrin) in 5 European countries (Austria, France, Hungary, Italy and UK) showed inter-country differences...

description An external quality assessment survey of immunochemical assays of 9 proteins (immunoglobulins G, A and M, complement components C3 and C4, alpha 1 -antitrypsin, orosomucoid, haptoglobin and transferrin) in 5 European countries (Austria, France, Hungary, Italy and UK) showed inter-country differences in the mean values obtained. Reprocessing of the results using one of the two specimens distributed as a ‘calibrant’ effectively eliminated or reduced substantially these differences. Consideration of the methods used by participants confirmed previous indications from national surveys that the differences were due to lack of agreement among commercial calibrants. Such interlaboratory variations were also minimised by the ‘calibration’ in this survey. The role of European working calibration materials in ensuring interlaboratory agreement on an international basis is discussed.
