UK NEQAS for Serum Indices (HIL)
This Scheme not only assesses the common three analytical parameters which can affect the validity of assay results, but also will look at the effect of serum indices on a range of analytes (Analyte X), both at the analyte level and to assess whether the analyte would be reported.
